A brilliant operation by the Pula Forestry Corps of environmental surveillance led to the seizure of a large quantity of marijuana.
An entire greenhouse with about 3000 plants and 130 kilos of dried inflorescences is the result of the operation carried out in Bachixeddu in the countryside of Pula.
The tenant of the BI greenhouses, a 40-year-old Ukrainian national, got into trouble. He had a light cannabis cultivation for textile purposes as a cover.
The operation was coordinated by the Public Prosecutor Dr. Gilberto Ganassi who ordered the seizure of the greenhouse and the sampling of the drying plants and inflorescences.
Laboratory tests have confirmed the presence of an active ingredient of an average of 11%. The drug, if placed on the market, given the large quantity, would have brought in several hundred thousand euros. The positions of other people both in the area and in northern Sardinia who in various capacities have interests in the greenhouse are being examined by investigators.
All seized drugs will be sent for destruction.
