I shop ‘door to door’ and ship parcels with drugs
(ANSA) – MILAZZO, JULY 16 – The Guardia di Finanza and the police carried out an order this morning in Milazzo against 12 people accused in various ways of being part of a criminal association dedicated to the trafficking and trafficking of substances narcotics. The organization operated in the Tyrrhenian belt of the province of Messina, with offshoots on Rome.
During the anti-drug operation, called “Drug express”, four people ended up in prison, another five under house arrest, two are obliged to stay in the municipality of residence.
The organization had numerous customers, now loyal with almost daily requests for drugs, especially cocaine and crack, and had devised numerous diversions to avoid kidnappings. In particular through the system of “door to door” deliveries and the shipment of packages containing narcotic substances, hence the name of the operation. Investigations also documented the use of conventional cryptic language in conversations, such as the term “pizza” to indicate crack doses. A Roman supply channel was also active, headed by a 37-year-old from Bracciano who transferred drugs to the people of Messina through the shipping system. During the investigations, the investigators intercepted a package in the Messina warehouse of a well-known forwarder that was supposed to contain a “thermos” but which actually concealed 15 amphetamine tablets and 38 grams of ethylmorphine.
