Polish police dismantle drug production sites and arrest trafficking suspects
Polish law enforcement agencies have conducted several operations targeting organized crime and drug production. In Lower Silesia, authorities dismantled a methamphetamine production line and seized 2.5 kg of narcotics valued at approximately 124,000 PLN, alongside firearms and ammunition. Related arrests were made in Legnica and Chojnowo, involving individuals linked to drug trafficking and illegal weapons possession.
In the Łódź Voivodeship, police in Skierniewice discovered equipment used for illegal amphetamine production, leading to the arrest of three individuals. Meanwhile, in Bydgoszcz, a 42-year-old man was detained following an investigation that prevented the distribution of over 11 kg of narcotics, including methphedrone and marijuana.
In a separate legal development, the Białystok Court of Appeal upheld a sentence for a 20-year-old man involved in large-scale drug trafficking. The group utilized internet messaging, mobile payments, and cryptocurrencies to facilitate sales, often shipping drugs via parcel lockers. The operation involved the distribution of various narcotics and medications, with a black market value exceeding 900,000 PLN.
