Trafficker extradited from Morocco sentenced to seven years in prison in France

Released for acts of complicity in importation and criminal association, a drug trafficker arrested in Morocco and extradited to France was convicted of complicity in the possession of narcotics.

It all started with anonymous information received by the Ofast (Anti-Narcotics Office) police officers in 2022. A drug delivery is planned the next day in the ZAC de l’Orme, in Belloy-en-France. “A truck with a semi-trailer registered in Bulgaria reverses into a garage while a man keeps watch. A white van arrives a little later, followed by a second,” relates The Parisian. The police arrived on site and arrested five men and seized 114 packets of pollen (highly concentrated cannabis) near the truck, or 1,055 kg. On the garage mezzanine, they discovered 18 kg and the packaging of 16 packages. The market value of the cargo is expected to bring in between 3.5 and 8 million euros.
