The Mossos d’Esquadra have made several searches this Thursday morning in apartments where marijuana was grown
The Mossos d’Esquadra carried out an operation this Thursday morning against a criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking, especially marijuana. According to the police, several entries and searches have been carried out, especially in the neighborhood of Sant Cosme del Prat de Llobregat (Baix Llobregat), but also in Sant Adrià de Besòs and Tarragona. About 200 agents have participated in the device, including researchers, BRIMO, ARRO, the canine unit, the underground unit and the drone unit.
Marijuana plantations in the basement of buildings
In Prat de Llobregat, the researchers have discovered marijuana plantations in the basement of the buildings, since those investigated had drilled the basements to install them, taking advantage of the fact that there were no parking lots. Six entries have been made in two properties in the area of the square in the Orcasitas neighborhood, in Sant Cosme, and two more in other places. In addition, there is an entrance in Sant Adrià de Besòs and another in the city of Tarragona.
Premiere of Mossos drones
As part of this investigation, the Mossos air police have used for the first time one of the newly acquired drones, which gives it more autonomy and increases the vision capacity to 500 meters. In addition to the Mossos, there are local police officers and Endesa technicians in El Prat, as they are also charged with the crime of defrauding electric fluid.
