Opération antidrogue réussie à Mbour : Deux arrestations majeures

The Urban Security of the Mbour Central Police Station carried out a major operation on the night of August 29 to 30, leading to the arrest of two drug traffickers and significant seizures.

First arrest: crack trafficking ring dismantled

Acting on the basis of operational intelligence, law enforcement targeted a crack trafficking network operating between Thiès and Mbour.

The intervention resulted in the arrest of a suspect at the Saly intersection, carrying 20 "kepas" of crack with a street value of 200,000 CFA francs (10,000 francs each).

Second seizure: cannabis and kush

The same night, a second individual was arrested with 35 "kepas" of kush and 8 cones of Indian hemp, demonstrating the diversity of substances circulating in the region.

Investigation in progress

The two suspects were taken into custody, and the investigation is continuing. The authorities' goal is to dismantle these trafficking networks in their entirety, suggesting that these arrests may be just the tip of the iceberg in the fight against the illicit drug trade.

This operation illustrates the determination of Senegalese security forces in the fight against drug trafficking, a scourge which particularly affects tourist areas such as Mbour.

    Je lance un appel à tous les trafiquants et detenteurs de produits illicites quels qu'ils soient.
    Du 8 au 12 Septembre, rendez-vous au commisariat le plus proche (ou gendarmerie) et deposez-y vos produits.
    Vous repartirez libre avec un reçu dont on verra ulterieurement l'usage.
    J'appelle les autorités à accompagner cette semaine Grand Nettoyage.
    Merci aux Forces de l'Ordre pour leur collaboration attendue.
