Five suspected drug sellers and deliverers were indicted in Lyon. Four were placed in pre-trial detention, the fifth left free under judicial supervision.

The men are accused of having home delivered narcotics, cocaine and cannabis. Luxury cars and clothing as well as bank accounts were seized, the prosecution said. The growing practice has been dubbed “Ubershit” or “Ubercoke,” depending on the substance.. Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin asked prefects to intensify the fight against online drug trafficking by notably strengthening cyber patrols.
