Two parcels sent from Nuoro to Ardore Marina , in Locride , with an exceptional content : 50 kilos of marijuana .

This is what was discovered by the soldiers of the Guardia di Finanza who, after having made the drug complete its journey up to the province of Reggio Calabria, arrested an alleged drug dealer .

The discovery of the green berets took place following random checks in the warehouses of some shipping companies , which made it possible to identify the two packages in which the sender's and recipient's details, as well as the addresses, appeared to be pure fantasy and, therefore, corresponding to non-existent subjects.

This is how the narcotic substance was discovered .

Therefore, once the investigations were started to identify those responsible, a controlled delivery was carried out having a telephone number available for tracing the recipient.

A financier pretended to be a courier for the transport company and, having arrived in the town of Locride, contacted the recipient by telephone, arranging a meeting for the delivery in an isolated place. Once the delivery was made, being now certain of the identity of the recipient, who among other things also signed a receipt using the invented name indicated in the shipment, they blocked it.

A further five kilograms of marijuana were found following a search of the man 's home.

The value of the drug, once placed on the drug market, according to the financiers, can be estimated at over 550 thousand euros .
