From the organizer of the traffic to the inhabitants who agreed to hide the drugs at home: it is the whole team of delinquents from the dealing point of the city of Victor-Hugo de Gentilly who was placed in police custody on Monday morning.
The Créteil prosecutor's office had carried out a preliminary investigation to put an end to this trafficking.
The city of Victor-Hugo deal point is one of the drug trafficking sites identified in Val-de-Marne.
And the police were not mistaken.
By arresting eight people from the neighborhood this Monday, including a minor, they got their hands on 30 kg of cannabis resin, a little weed and 15,000 euros in cash.
