Police in Novi Sad seized 70 kilograms of suspected marijuana and 10 grams of cocaine in a major operation, arresting a man from Požarevac. The suspect, 35, was taken into custody on suspicion of unauthorised production and placing narcotics into circulation, as well as unauthorised possession of a firearm.
