Four people from Indre-et-Loire were arrested on Thursday October 10 while traveling between Nantes and Tours. In the car, the police discovered more than three kilos of cocaine with an estimated value of 230,000 euros.
Two women and two men were examined on Monday October 14 for drug trafficking. Originally from Indre-et-Loire, they had been arrested four days earlier while driving between Nantes and Tours. They were transporting 3.5 kg of cocaine, or around 230,000 euros, specifies The New Republic.
They hid the money in toys
The suspects went to look for the drugs in Morocco, Spain and again in the Netherlands before selling them in France. “They probably only form the tip of the iceberg,” a source commented to our colleagues. During the search of an apartment, the police discovered 53,000 euros and some notes were hidden in children’s toys.
Three suspects were placed in pre-trial detention. One was placed under judicial supervision. The judicial police had been working on this investigation since the beginning of 2023.
