PESCARA – Price list and photos of the goods for the sale of narcotics via social media. Five traffickers were arrested and three were ordered to remain at home for running a drug dealing ring with online orders and deliveries on the Rome-Pescara axis.
The restrictive measures, issued following investigations carried out with coordination in the direction between the Public Prosecutor’s Office at the Court of Pescara and the Public Prosecutor’s Office at the Juvenile Court of L’Aquila, were carried out by the yellow flames of the provincial command of Pescara, with the assistance of the aircraft of the Naval Air Operations Department of the Adriatic capital, since the first light of dawn.
The investigations, which began in 2022, allowed us to reconstruct the movements of the network of drug dealers who, coordinated by the direction of a single family unit, had set up a lucrative online market for the pre-sale of drugs. The narcotics, accompanied by price lists, were advertised on the main social channels, complete with posts and photographs. This method of sale and purchase allowed the sale of cocaine, hashish and marijuana to users who, by connecting to specific invitation links, could place orders, make appointments and collect goods 24 hours a day.
THE DETAILS
Among the most active pushers and those dedicated to supplying the “circle”, there was also a minor, who ended up in handcuffs, and some already detained who managed to bring the drugs into the prison, taking advantage of visits from relatives. The investigations documented over 45 kilos of narcotic substance sold, for an illicit turnover of over one million euros. In collaboration with the Penitentiary Police, seizures were also carried out in flagrante delicto, for a total of 6 kg of hashish, 20 grams of cocaine and more than 2,000 euros in cash. Numerous searches were carried out on the subjects involved in various capacities in the investigations and several arrests were carried out against buyers, in confirmation of the illicit activity. The consumers were reported to the prefectural authorities.
