Poland police dismantle multiple drug labs and fraud rings

Polish law enforcement agencies have conducted several major operations targeting drug production and organized crime. In the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, police discovered a large-scale drug laboratory in Sadowie, seizing approximately 680 kilograms of clefedrone in the crystallization phase, along with 2,500 liters of various chemical substances and a production reactor. Two men from Podlasie were arrested in connection with the facility.

In other regions, authorities disrupted various criminal activities. In Bydgoszcz, police seized nearly 2 kilograms of marijuana and dismantled a cannabis cultivation operation involving 18 plants. In the Grójec district, a laboratory in Odrzywołek was uncovered, resulting in the seizure of 3.5 kilograms of narcotics and the arrest of an 18-year-old foreign national.

Additionally, a major fraud investigation in Katowice has led to indictments against five individuals. The group allegedly operated a call center to scam victims out of over one million PLN by impersonating bank employees and law enforcement officers. In the Silesian region, police also dismantled an illegal gambling operation in Rybnik and Racibórz, seizing 53 slot machines and over one million PLN in cash.
