Customs officials and Berlin police officers have arrested five Albanian members of a drug gang. They are accused of having smuggled 136 kilograms of marijuana into Germany. The value of the road is about one million euros.
According to "Berliner Zeitung" information, Albanian men aged 50, 40, 38, 27 and 22 wanted to load bouquets of cannabis plants near a warehouse in Velten, north of Berlin, and prepare them for resale.
"The authors apparently felt quite safe for a long time. However, investigators from customs and the police had long been watching the gang and tapping their phones, among other things. When the Mercedes truck driven by the 50-year-old pulled up to the property, four other men waiting there began unloading the drugs from the trailer into a VW Caddy. The police caught him at that moment," writes the German media.
