Fabienne Buccio, prefect of the Rhône, congratulates Le Figaro on the action taken by the police on the deal points in the Lyon metropolitan area. In 2023, 1,500 traffickers were arrested in the department, or 15% more than the previous year.
3.8 tonnes of cannabis were recovered, an increase of 43% compared to the last year. The situation was particularly tense in the Tonkin district of Villeurbanne where residents and the mayor expressed their frustration.
