A statement from the General Inspectorate of Police states that, as part of an investigation, law enforcement officers documented the illegal activities of a 22-year-old resident of the capital who was a member of an organized criminal group involved in drug distribution via the Telegram platform.
Following authorized searches, police discovered drugs at his home—preliminary evidence suggests hashish and cocaine—as well as high-precision electronic scales and other items intended for packaging and dosing drugs.
At the same time, several hiding places were discovered, from which packages containing substances resembling mephedrone were seized; the suspect had hidden them to pass on to other members of the group for subsequent distribution to end users.
The suspect was detained for 72 hours, and if found guilty, he faces imprisonment for a term of 7 to 15 years.
