The police have arrested four people in connection with organised crime over alleged drug trafficking and money laundering. The joint operation, which involved a number of sections within the Corps, was carried out after police received information that a drug deal was scheduled to take place. A 21-year-old man was also arrested at the Marsa shop, after he was found in the possession of objects related to drug trafficking, and cannabis which was ready to be trafficked. A search yielded cocaine, a weighing scale, a pistol, ammunition and a number of mobiles. The four men are being held at the Floriana lockup, as investigations by the police are still ongoing.
