By controlling this 28-year-old young man, the police did not expect to pull out such a case.
This Monday evening, around 11 p.m., in the town of Pin, the police therefore meet this man who leaves his home in full curfew and without a mask.
His jacket has a kind of bump.
In fact, the man was carrying 4,000 euros with him.
He could not explain the origin of this sum.
And to be honest, he was very embarrassed.
The police decide to search his home.
Investigators discover 1.7 kilograms of cannabis resin and all the equipment to package the drug and sell it at retail.
In this same accommodation, an additional 1200 euros are discovered as well as "many cell phones".
