The Carabinieri conducted a new operation in the historic center of Sassari: today, a woman was arrested in flagrante delicto for possession of narcotics for the purpose of dealing.

The operation was triggered by a surveillance operation near a home in the city center. The officers observed a young man approaching the woman's door, handing over money, and receiving a dose of drugs. The young man was stopped by the officers, who recovered the cocaine he had just purchased, worth €30.

During further searches inside the home, the officers found 15 doses of cocaine and 4 doses of heroin pre-packaged for sale, as well as €1,910 in cash, considered the proceeds of drug dealing, since the woman was unemployed.

The investigation also revealed that the drug dealing took place in the presence of the woman's two minor children, who were temporarily placed with other family members for their protection.

The woman is now under house arrest by order of the Sassari Public Prosecutor's Office, pending a validation hearing. The drugs and cash were seized.
