Cocaine sales point in Elche home: 65-year-old neighbour arrested
The National Police have arrested a 65-year-old man in Elche as the alleged perpetrator of an offence against public health, according to cadenaser.com. Officers dismantled a drug sales point that allegedly operated from the suspect's own home.
The investigation began following complaints and information from neighbours about the continuous flow of people visiting the property. Surveillance work made it possible to establish that buyers were accessing the garage of the home directly, where the exchange of substances for money allegedly took place, which made it difficult to detect the activity from outside.
With judicial authorisation, officers searched the home and found 895 grammes of cocaine, six grammes of hashish, 170 euros in cash and a precision scales. The arrested man was brought before the on-duty courts in Elche, which ordered his remand in custody.
