Maxi anti-drug operation by the carabinieri of Pantelleria who have seized 138 kilos of hashish, divided into over 1,300 blocks ready to be sold outside the island.

If placed on the market, the drug would have earned over a million euros.

Three "unsuspected" were kept under an eye for days by the military with stalking and stalking, finally a semi-abandoned house was identified where the group, for no apparent reason, went frequently. The raid took place during which a 40-year-old and a 30-year-old couple were surprised, including a young woman from Lodi. They delivered nine pounds of hashish but the carabinieri sensed that there was something else.

In fact, in the couple's home, over 1,300 perfectly packaged and pre-packaged loaves were found. The three were arrested.

The drug may have come directly from Tunisia.
