Two men, aged 27 and 42, and two women, aged 26 and 37, were arrested last Wednesday on suspicion of drug trafficking in the municipality of Leiria. This action was part of an investigation ongoing for nearly two years, since September 2023.
In a statement released to the press on Friday, the Republican National Guard (GNR) reported that police operations were conducted in Porto Carro, which “enabled the identification and location of the suspects.”
A total of seven searches were conducted—four residential and three in vehicles—resulting in the arrest of the suspects and the seizure of 49 doses of heroin, nine doses of hashish, and seven mobile phones.
The arrested individuals have been formally charged and remain in custody pending their appearance this Friday at the Judicial Court of Leiria.
