(ANSA) - PALERMO, 23 NOV - In the historic markets of Palermo, along with fruit, vegetables and street food, drugs flow freely.


   This is what emerges from the last operation carried out during the night by the Carabinieri of the company in Piazza Verdi, who arrested seven active people in the Vucciria shop square.

Overall, the precautionary measures provided by the investigating judge are 11: in addition to the arrests, the obligation of residence and presentation to the Pg are in fact for four people.


   They are all accused of holding and selling drugs in competition.


    The investigation by the carabinieri, coordinated by the Prosecutor's Office, was triggered in February 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, and concluded in August of the same year.

The suspects would have been a point of reference for many Traturists and young consumers of the Palermo nightlife.

The drug sale wouldn't stop even during the lockdown.


   During the investigation three people had already been arrested in the act of crime.

One of them, in particular, was surprised in a warehouse in the center of Palermo where 500 grams of hashish and 400 grams of marijuana and everything needed for packaging were found.


   During the investigation two other people were reported and 25 buyers reported to the prefecture.
