On Monday night, officers from the Gavoi police station caught him near a marijuana plantation in Elei, in the countryside of Olzai. The man, a 36-year-old from Orgosolo, was standing near approximately 3,500 flowering plants, weighing a total of 5 tons of marijuana, with a THC level twenty times the legal limit. He was arrested red-handed and charged with drug production.

The investigation, coordinated by prosecutor Sandra Maria Benedetta Picicuto, revealed that the arrested man was involved in managing the cultivation, while the plantation owner, another young man from Orgosolo, was reported at large.

Subsequent house searches led to the discovery of approximately 230 grams of marijuana inflorescence, which is why the arrested man's brother was also reported at large.
