TERAMO – As part of a service to prevent, repress and combat drug trafficking, soldiers belonging to the Mobile Unit of the Teramo Financial Police Group proceeded to carry out a checkpoint at the exit of the A/ motorway toll booth 24 of Basciano (TE).
On this occasion, a vehicle was stopped with a foreign national inside, without identification documents, who showed obvious signs of nervousness. The particular situation made the military suspicious, prompting them to carry out further investigations. After a search of the vehicle, the result of which was found, cleverly hidden, a rectangular-shaped and brown-coloured casing, bearing the image of the film character “Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean” and containing within it approximately 100 grams of hashish.
The sum of over 2,300.00 euros was also found on the person, divided into banknotes of various denominations, which the same person was not able to justify. Subsequent investigations also made it possible to ascertain that the subject did not have a driving license and that he had already been sanctioned for a similar violation in the past, thus constituting a further criminal offence.
The person responsible was then reported in a state of freedom to the Public Prosecutor’s Office at the Court of Teramo for illicit trafficking of narcotic substances with the consequent seizure of the narcotic substance and the cash found on the person.
