In a police operation carried out in the border area between the departments of Cauca and Valle del Cauca, authorities successfully seized approximately 1.9 tonnes of cannabis. During the procedure, uniformed officers also detained a minor who was involved in the incident.
The operation is part of the actions being conducted by law enforcement forces in south-western Colombia to combat drug trafficking and dismantle distribution networks operating in the region.
