In Paraguay, authorities at the Minga Guazú Social Reinsertion Penitentiary Center discovered a grayish-white powder hidden within a double-bottomed thermos during a routine inspection. National Police explosives specialists conducted field tests on the substance, prompting officials to secure critical sectors of the facility. Subsequent security operations at the Minga Guazú center resulted in the seizure of weapons, cell phones, and the mysterious white powder. While preliminary field tests indicated the powder was not cocaine, the substance has been sent to a forensic laboratory to determine its exact composition and whether it possesses explosive properties. One mobile device was notably discovered hidden inside a Bible. Recent security raids targeting high-danger and maximum-security modules at the center resulted in the seizure of additional cell phones, weapons, and lighters. The investigation into the unidentified powder remains ongoing as forensic analysis continues.
