Carabinieri seized a “drug deposit” in Todi, recovering more than 508 grams of heroin ready to be sold, alongside cash and fake banknotes. Two men were arrested in connection with the operation, which police say included equipment for cutting and packaging doses. The arrests followed a control on State Road 448, near the junction with 79 bis, in Ponte Rio. Officers stopped a car with two men on board because of their unusually suspicious behaviour, then carried out checks that led to a search. On the 36-year-old, police found three ovules containing a total of 37.15 grams of heroin. Further investigation then triggered searches at both suspects’ homes in Perugia. At the older man’s home, officers recovered 12 more heroin packages and a cutting substance, totaling 134.3 grams, plus an additional 13 grams of cutting substance. Police also seized a precision scale, 3,325 euros in cash, and 1,970 euros in counterfeit banknotes. At the younger man’s home, police found 337 grams of cutting substance split into 30 ovules and 13,600 euros in cash. All the seized drugs, cutting and measuring materials, nearly 17,000 euros in cash, and the counterfeit banknotes were placed under criminal seizure. The 36-year-old was arrested and later deferred in a state of freedom, charged not only with drug possession for the purpose of dealing but also with possessing false banknotes. The 24-year-old was arrested in flagrante and is linked to the same drug-related charge.
