Italian police seize half‑kilogram of hashish in Naples home and arrest teen near Vesuvio station

In the Sanità neighborhood of Naples, Carabinieri conducted a drug‑raiding operation that uncovered 650 g of hashish and about 3 g of cocaine hidden in a toilet. The search led to the arrest of a 37‑year‑old woman and her 18‑year‑old son, who were placed under house arrest pending a speedy trial.

Separately, police in San Giuseppe Vesuviano, near the Circumvesuviana railway station, stopped a 19‑year‑old caught receiving a small envelope of hashish (approximately 10 g) and cash believed to be proceeds from dealing. The teenager was charged with illegal possession for sale, while the buyer received an administrative fine. Both incidents illustrate intensified drug‑enforcement actions across the Campania region.
