Gela: He had weapons and drugs, 43-year-old arrested
Within the general prevention services aimed at preserving the safety of the territory, the Provincial Carabinieri Command of Caltanissetta, supported by the Helicopter Squadron Hunters "Sicilia", carried out a series of local searches in the province, arresting a 43-year-old non-EU citizen. In particular, during a house search carried out in the municipality of Gela in a rural dwelling used by the man, the soldiers found, hidden in a cavity in the ceiling, a 22 caliber pistol with the serial number erased and the relative ammunition, while in the technical room of the same building 1 kg of hashish was hidden.
The weapon, ammunition and drugs were placed under criminal seizure and made available to the Judicial Authority to allow for ballistic and technical-scientific investigations. For the weapon, in particular, checks will be carried out to establish its possible criminal origin. The arrested person, after the formal procedures, by order of the Public Prosecutor was transferred to the Gela prison. The Judge for preliminary investigations, following the preliminary hearing, applied the measure of pre-trial detention in prison.
The proceedings are currently in the preliminary investigation phase and the suspect is considered innocent until the final sentence is handed down.
