The investigation began in 2024 with the first arrests. Between March and April, an Italian resident was arrested in the area of Traviso and an Albanian living in the Vicenza area.
In October 2024, four other people were arrested -- two Italians, one Bosniak and one Moroccan citizen. In addition to the arrests, police seized 30,000 euros in cash and a large car. Over a year and a half, the gang had trafficked five kilograms of cocaine, making an average of 30 to 40 transactions a day. Drugs were sold for 80 to 100 euros per gram, and traders called “white”, beautiful “” or best “”.
