Serbian police, with prosecutors for organised crime, arrested several suspected members of a drug-smuggling group and said two more people are being sought. The arrests, carried out in Serbia, targeted suspects aged 54, 53 and 23, while investigators are still looking for two additional people. Police said the group is suspected of forming a criminal organisation and of unauthorised production and trafficking of drugs. Investigators said the suspects allegedly set up companies for international road transport and used trucks to smuggle drugs hidden in bunkers built into the cabins. The drugs were allegedly concealed there while cargo was carried in the truck’s cargo area. Police said the operation was uncovered through parallel work with partner units in Slovenia and their special state prosecutor’s office, along with cooperation with other countries including Hungary, France, Croatia and Austria. Information was exchanged via Europol channels. Serbian police also pointed to two seizures in France. In the second half of 2025, customs and police arrested two drivers from Serbia and said they were involved in smuggling drugs by truck from Spain, with two separate actions netting 471 kilograms of hashish and 15 kilograms of cannabis. In May 2026, the Slovenian partner unit arrested a Serbian suspect and a Slovenian suspect during a handover of 60 kilograms of cocaine and 46,000 euros. The arrested suspects in Serbia were taken in with a criminal complaint to the prosecutors’ office for organised crime. The investigation is ongoing, and the case continues against those still being sought.
