A large seizure of drugs is sometimes a matter of chance. The proof this Monday, around 10 pm, when several vehicles are stopped for “routine” checks carried out regularly by customs at the Lestelle toll booth in Saint-Gaudens, on the A64. Among the drivers is a truck driver, who has a suspicious attitude. This forty-something drives from Spain to Toulouse. And when the police check his load, they hand over nearly 250 kilograms of cannabis resin.
The man, who did not try to escape, was initially placed in customs detention. Then the Saint-Gaudens prosecutor decided to entrust police custody to the research brigade of the Saint-Gaudens company, assisted by the research section of the Toulouse gendarmerie.
Where does the merchandise come from, Morocco? And was this load intended for the cities of Toulouse? Possible. The hearing of this stranger should make it possible to learn more in the following hours. His questioning should continue until Thursday, before a possible indictment.
