Lampedusa, cocaine fished out of the sea: 11 more arrested.
Yesterday over 85 Carabinieri from the Provincial Command of Agrigento have executed a decree of arrest of a crime suspect, issued by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Agrigento, against 11 people, with the simultaneous execution of local and personal searches.
The recipients of the restrictive measures they are Italian and Senegalese citizens, some of them already with specific criminal records.
The repressive intervention follows the investigative findings of the investigation “Levant”, conducted by the soldiers of the Investigative Unit of the Provincial Command of Agrigento, which ended last February 15th with the execution of another 11 arrest orders for a crime suspect.
The investigative activity, the investigators report, made it possible to identify the members of “a criminal syndicate dedicated to drug dealing” and to carry out the seizure of approximately 25kg of cocaine, the sum of over 16mila euros withholding proceeds from drug dealing and the identification of “one of the channels for money laundering proceeds from illicit activity”.
