Deactivation of a cocaine delivery service at home on the Costa Brava

The National Police, in collaboration with the local police of Sant Feliu de Guíxols, carried out during the past New Years Eve a joint operation against a gang that sold cocaine to neighbors of the Costa Brava. They were arrested three people: a man, who acted as leader of the group, and two women. After going to court, the alleged leader entered prison preventively. The three suspects have a record of crimes against public health.

According to sources consulted by EL PERIÓDICO, the investigation against this gang began with the arrest of another trafficker a few months ago. Thanks to the monitoring that the agents of the state body carried out on this first drug dealer, who could make an average of between five and ten drug ‘passes’ – fleeting encounters with consumers to deliver doses – they discovered who supplied the merchandise. After arresting the first target, the policemen put the magnifying glass on this second, larger trafficker because he was moving larger amounts of cocaine.

During the follow-ups that the agents of the National Police station in Sant Feliu de Guíxols practiced on this second trafficker, they saw that he was carrying an elevated lifestyle, he was driving a high-end car and, furthermore, he did not have any job. A detail the latter that indicated that he was entirely dedicated to drug trafficking and that activity was the source, presumably, of all his income. They also observed that while the previous camel could make between five and ten ‘passes’ a day, this second one has a more hectic schedule: it delivered between twenty and thirty doses daily.

He went to supply cocaine to consumers from populations of Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Platja d’aro, S’Agaró Y Santa Cristina. “Following him also gave the measure of heavy cocaine use that prevails in the Costa Brava & rdquor ;, reasons the head of the operation unleashed by this gang.

With case ‘Schooner’, thus they baptized the operation, a path has emerged that normally remains hidden in most of the police coups that are publicized, which focus on criminal organizations that bring drugs from Morocco –In the case of hashish– or South America –In the case of cocaine– but not in the people who occupy lower places in the pyramid of distribution and are those who connect the average consumer with the drug.

The operation of this group led by the man in the company of the two women was similar to “a Home delivery service& rdquor ;, explains the person responsible for the device. “A way of proceeding similar to that which has been developed in other parts of Spain during the pandemic & rdquor ;. Many consumers were cited in bars of these localities, like Sant Feliu de Guíxols or Platja d’Aro, in public car parks. In a few seconds, the camel would deliver the ‘piece of paper’ – which it hid, rolled up in wrapping paper, doses that ranged from half a gram to ten grams – and left to fulfill another order. A more select group of clients, perhaps because he had a closer relationship with those investigated, he did not summon them in any public space and left them the drug in the mailbox of your home, a place that also collected the agreed money in cash that the buyer had previously prepared. This last system has complicated police investigations.
