(ANSA) - NAPLES, NOVEMBER 30 - The 560 kilograms of hashish that the Carabinieri of the investigative unit of the Naples provincial command found in Castel Volturno, in the province of Caserta, were destined to be sold during the upcoming Christmas holidays.
The investigations led the military to carry out a blitz in a villa in the area.
Two apparently unsuspected uncensored women ended up in handcuffs: mother and daughter aged 65 and 49.
The large quantity of narcotic substance was found after several hours of research.
The drug, divided into pats, in retail sale would have yielded a profit of no less than 3 million euros.
The drugs were hidden inside zip-lock plastic bags but this did not prevent the house from being pervaded by the strong smell.
The two women, originally from Naples but domiciled in the province of Caserta, are available to the judicial authorities in the Pozzuoli prison.
