USKOK indicts drug trafficking ring involving Croatian and Czech citizens
The Croatian anti-corruption and organized crime agency, USKOK, has filed an indictment against eight individuals—seven Croatian citizens and one Czech citizen—for operating a drug trafficking ring.
The criminal group allegedly operated between March 2024 and August 2025, facilitating the import, transport, and sale of various narcotics, including cocaine, amphetamine, MDMA, and synthetic cannabinoids, across Croatia and the Czech Republic. According to the indictment, the group earned over 700,000 euros from cocaine sales alone.
The ringleader reportedly coordinated drug procurement with suppliers in the United Arab Emirates and other sources. The group utilized rented garages as storage and preparation sites, employed couriers for distribution, and used encrypted mobile phones for communication. To secure profits, the group reportedly used safes located in various catering establishments.
