The State Police, coordinated by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Como, arrested an 18-year-old Algerian, legal in the area, with police records for crimes of the same nature, against property and against the person, for drug dealing, collected largely as a minor.
The investigations
The arrest occurred following some reports, referring to an alleged drug dealing activity that took place in via Anzani and where the operational base had become the patio of one of the buildings present there. For a few weeks now, the policemen of the Flying Squad of Como have been preparing an investigation activity – made up of stalking, stalking and seizures of small quantities, also using “photo traps” to certify the illicit activities – documenting that carried out by the 18 year old Algerian, residing in the same street and where he sold and held the doses of drugs, mainly hashish.
After having collected all the evidence held against him, the agents of the Como Flying Squad intervened to arrest the young Algerian, finding a block of hashish on him with a total weight of 95.11 grams.
At the end of the formalities of his arrest, he was taken to the Como prison, at the disposal of the judicial authorities. Crime prevention and repression activities by the State Police will continue in the city and in via Anzani, according to the directives issued by the Como Police Commissioner, Marco Calì.
