Macedonian drug dealer arrested in Desenzano car park: cocaine and thousands of euros seized
During an anti-drug operation in the public car park on via dei Caduti Lager in Desenzano del Garda, officers from the local Police Station arrested a 42-year-old man, a Macedonian citizen with residence in Mantua.
The raid was launched when police officers noticed a car driving aimlessly among the parked vehicles. The driver was looking around suspiciously and kept his eyes fixed on his mobile phone. After a few passes, a second individual approached the window: he handed over money and received two sealed packets, which he then concealed under his clothes.
The officers immediately intervened. During the search of the driver and the vehicle, three cellophane packets containing cocaine already divided into doses ready for sale were discovered. A bundle of small-denomination banknotes totalling more than 5,500 euros was also seized, considered the proceeds of the illegal trade.
The man who had bought the drugs, a man from Brescia with a police record, admitted to being a regular customer of the arrested man. He was issued an administrative penalty for personal possession of narcotics.
The seller, at the end of the formalities, was taken to prison on the charge of drug dealing. His criminal history is already marked by multiple convictions and criminal proceedings.
Police Chief Sartori also signed an expulsion order: the 42-year-old will not be allowed to return to Desenzano del Garda for three years. In case of non-compliance, he risks up to eighteen months in prison and a fine of 10,000 euros.
