Seven detained in Istria on suspicion of drug trafficking and money laundering
Police conducted an extensive operation in the Poreč area on Thursday morning in which seven people were detained. According to an official statement from the Istrian Police Administration, the action was directed against unauthorised drug trafficking and organised crime.
Members of the General Crime Service participated in the operation together with investigators from USKOK. They carried out detentions and investigative procedures against a group believed to have operated as a criminal association. According to unofficial reports, money laundering charges are among the substantiated suspicions.
The investigation commenced several months ago, and during that period evidence was gathered regarding the activities of the suspects. Following the completion of all criminal investigation procedures, those detained will be handed over to the custody supervisor at the Primorsko-Goranska Police Administration, after which USKOK will file criminal charges.
Details of the case have not yet been released. Further information on the outcome of the operation will be known only after investigators complete all planned procedures.
