Giugliano in Campania: A woman arrested for drug trafficking and illegal possession of ammunition.
Carabinieri raid catches 46-year-old with cocaine ready for sale and 41 bullets in his home
Carabinieri officers from the Giugliano in Campania Company conducted a new search and search operation in homes and common areas in the Varcaturo area, on Via Parchitiello, known to be occupied by individuals already known to law enforcement. Inside an apartment, officers located a 46-year-old woman with no criminal record, suspected of drug dealing. When the Carabinieri knocked on the door, the woman, agitated and aware that the encirclement was closing in, attempted to throw a safe from the balcony. A member of staff quickly recovered the item from beneath the balcony, preventing its contents from being lost.
Seizure of cocaine and drug dealing equipment
Inside the box, 14 doses of cocaine ready for sale were found, along with a bag containing another 12 grams of the same substance, precision scales, and various packaging materials. The 46-year-old was immediately arrested for possession of drugs for the purpose of trafficking.
Other findings in the house
The search continued inside the apartment, where 41 bullets and a blank-firing pistol with its red cap removed were also found under the bed. Following these discoveries, the woman's husband, a 41-year-old with no criminal record, was also charged with illegal possession of ammunition.
