Italian police in Bologna have cracked a drug trafficking case, arresting an Albanian couple implicated in this network.
The action took place in the parking lot of a supermarket on "Via Massarenti".
The couple appeared nervous and this served as an indication for the officers to request a physical search of them and the vehicle they were traveling in.
A total amount of 20 kg of marijuana and hashish was seized during this operation.
The car turned out to be registered in the name of an Italian, who had previously been arrested in a drug-related operation.
A few weeks ago, another person was found on a scooter registered in the man's name and caught transporting and possessing 13 kg of marijuana at home.
A search of the vehicle revealed 5 kg of marijuana in the trunk.
Further checks were carried out both at the Albanian couple's home, where half a kilogram of marijuana was found, and in an unlocked garage, where car keys were found.
In the garage, rented in the name of the vehicle owner, another quantity of narcotics was found, totaling 13 kg of marijuana and with a total weight of 20 kg of seized drugs.
The Albanian couple is isolated in the police station's detention center, awaiting a security measure from the court.
