Loaded like a mule. According to our information, a 37-year-old man was arrested on Saturday at the Montparnasse train station with 26 kg of cannabis in his luggage. Originally from the Dominican Republic, the man was placed in custody. Contacted, the Paris prosecutor’s office confirmed the arrest and the seizure of the drugs. “The investigation has been entrusted to the narcotics brigade of the regional directorate of the judicial police (DRPJ),” it specifies.
The weed wrapped in aluminum foil
It was around noon when the man, armed with two suitcases, caught the eye of the police from the Paris metropolitan networks brigade (BRF) who decided to check him. When they asked him to show them the contents of his luggage, the suspect could not open them. A reaction that puzzled the police officers who decided to arrest the Dominican for concealing, as he was unable to explain.
Once they arrived at their premises, the police called in a dog from the canine brigade to check the contents of the suitcases. However, they were so well wrapped that the dog’s nose was unsuccessful. The officers then decided to open the luggage themselves. Inside, they discovered a significant amount of weed wrapped in aluminum foil. They probably understood why the owner seemed reluctant to open them.
