In Italy, 700 kilos of cocaine from Colombia have been seized in a raid against international drug trafficking. 21 people were arrested.
Since 2021, judicial authorities in Trieste have been actively involved in uncovering links between South American cocaine producers and European dealers.
Police officers infiltrated the circles of drug dealers
During the course of the investigation, police officers even infiltrated drug dealer circles, with a total of fifty security forces involved in carrying out raids.
The operation was called “Geppo” and resulted in the seizure of as much as 4.3 tons of cocaine in Trieste in 2021 and 2022. This illegal drug is said to have been worth up to 500 million euros on the black market. This is one of the largest anti-drug attacks ever carried out in Europe.
