A drug-trafficking gang in Mykonos was dismantled

A criminal group was dismantled by the Mykonos Police Sub-Directorate in collaboration with a special police unit of the Attica Security Directorate, whose members stored and trafficked cannabis and cocaine in Mykonos.

In a police operation, which took place in the early hours of yesterday, in Mykonos, three people, aged 48, 56 and 60, were identified and arrested, of which the two members of the criminal group and a case file was filed against them – as the case may be – for criminal gang by aiding and abetting, violating drug laws, and violating residency restrictions.

The planning and organization of the police operation was carried out by the Mykonos Police Sub-Directorate in collaboration with a Special Echelon of the Attica Security Directorate, while it was attended by police officers from the Mykonos Security and Foreigners Department, the Attica Security Directorate, Crime Prevention and Suppression Teams (O.P. K.E.), as well as a special dog K-9 accompanied by the Coast Guard – Hellenic Coast Guard.

As it emerged from the investigation, after appropriate use of information, the 48-year-old and the 56-year-old, together with their unknown accomplices, at least 7 months ago, formed a criminal group with continuous, structured and distinct roles and trafficked narcotic substances, cannabis and cocaine, to residents and visitors of Mykonos, thereby obtaining an illegal financial benefit.

In particular, they trafficked quantities of cocaine for 100 euros per gram and quantities of cannabis for 20 euros per gram, in a closed circle of customers, who lived or visited the island of Mykonos.

A leading role in the criminal group was played by the 48-year-old, who, after procuring large quantities of cannabis and cocaine, stored them either in the 56-year-old’s house, or in special hiding places (kavantzes) in isolated places near rural roads.

He then trafficked and delivered the narcotics to interested “customers” on a two-wheeled motorcycle owned by him, taking counter-surveillance measures, while receiving the pre-agreed sums of money in return.

In addition, the 48-year-old accused had been involved with the authorities in the past for a drug case and restrictive conditions of residence had been imposed on him, which he violated, as it was determined that he resided at a different address than the one he owed according to the restrictive conditions.

In searches carried out, bodily and in homes, among others, 3 plastic packages with raw cannabis with a gross weight of 3,317 grams were found and confiscated, as well as 8 containers, which contained raw cannabis, net weight 83 grams, plastic packaging, containing an unknown substance, white color, gross weight 24 grams, 2 plastic and one metal cannabis grater, 3 scales, 3 telephones, 2 mobile phones, motorcycle and 3,527.7 euros.

The arrested persons are taken to the competent prosecution authority, while the investigation continues both for the identification of their accomplices and for their possible participation in other similar criminal acts.
