Significant police resources were deployed on Tuesday at rue de Quiévrain in Boussu, according to our colleagues from Sudpresse. Unmarked cars, helicopters, dogs, etc. indeed went there to get their hands on nearly 2,000 cannabis plants. A real estate agency would have alerted the police. The operation lasted several hours. Fields behind the targeted house were also screened.
While the Boraine police initially took charge of the case, it was finally taken over by the federal judicial police. The case is said to have a link with Albanian crime. When the neighborhood policeman went to the house located on rue de Quiévrain, the occupant of the premises fled. The federal police helicopters were therefore present to try to find the trace of the fugitive.
