• The arrival of a package from Holland with psychoactive substances inside launched the joint operation between both bodies

• The Judicial Authority decreed the immediate entry into prison of the main investigator

June 6, 2024.- Customs Surveillance Officials of the Tax Agency in Seville, in a joint operation with the National Police in Seville, have proceeded to dismantle a clandestine production center of drugs in a neighborhood of the capital of Seville.

As a result of the searches, more than 1.5 kilos and 800 pills of different psychoactive substances were seized, such as methamphetamines, Ketamine, Tusi, MDMA, GHB, synthetic cathinones, Popper and Viagra.

From the Netherlands to a home laboratory in Seville

The investigation began after the interception of a package originating in the Netherlands and destined for Seville, inside which around 300 grams of the so-called New Psychoactive Substances (NSP) were found.

Once this shipment was intercepted, a device made up of agents from both bodies was established to determine its recipient.

Finally, last April, the person who received the package was arrested, finding among his belongings numerous single-dose bags prepared for sale with different types of psychotropic substances, as well as fractional amounts of money, which made suspects investigators of the existence of some place where these drugs were prepared for later distribution.

Thanks to the actions of the agents, it was possible to identify and locate the place where these types of substances were processed, carrying out different searches in several properties, and in one of them a home laboratory for the preparation of synthetic drugs was found. More than 1.2 kilos and 800 pills of different psychoactive substances were seized there, such as methamphetamines, Ketamine, Tusi, MDMA, GHB, synthetic cathinones, Popper and Viagra. Likewise, precision scales, glass smoking pipes, bottles and dropper pipettes were seized, as well as 22,000 euros and 2,900 dollars in cash.

Once the police proceedings were completed, all the seized effects were placed at the disposal of the judicial authority, in addition to the main person under investigation, who was ordered to be imprisoned.

With this operation, a home production center dedicated to the preparation and distribution of synthetic drugs in Seville, linked to 'chemsex', substances whose consumption is linked to sexual practices, is dismantled.
