Because of suspected drug trafficking on the Darknet, seven men and women have had to answer before the Trier district court since Thursday.
Two main defendants are said to have earned around 280,000 euros with the offenses in 2019 and 2020, the court said from the indictment.
They are accused of a total of 148 cases: They are said to have offered amphetamine, cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, LSD and hashish through various nicknames and shops.
Trier - The Darknet is a shielded part of the Internet.
As business was running, the duo gradually involved the other defendants in the Eifel, it said.
According to the indictment, they proceeded according to a division of labor.
One of the main defendants was responsible for the organization and distribution of the work orders, the other for the procurement of the intoxicants.
The others would have worked through order lists: the drugs weighed, packed, labeled and taken to remote packing stations.
The process is initially scheduled until January 25, 2022.
