The Federal Police in Goiás launched, on Tuesday (15), an operation against a CRIMINAL DRUG TRAFFICKING CRIMINAL GROUP who used the Bolivia-Goiás-Europe route and was attended by medical college students.
The investigation points to the sending of cocaine from the border of Brazil with Bolivia to Goiás, from where the drug was sent abroad in a camouflaged way. The investigated group used oscilloscopes – instruments normally used in engineering and electronic laboratories – as hidden compartments for international drug transport.
With the investigation, still ongoing, five drug loads sent by the criminal group out of Brazil were identified to the countries Portugal, Spain and England and, through international police cooperation with Germany, were seized in that country three loads that were in transit to the final destination.
According to the delegate Bruno Gama, they were shipments via air and this is just one of the group’s methods. There is no estimate of drugs sent yet.
“The criminal group used Brazilian medical students who study in Bolivia to pay the drug shipments abroad,” explains delegate Bruno Gama.
The researchers discovered the involvement of these Brazilian students who had “proven performance in the payment of drug shipments abroad, acting as a financial bridge and logistics of the scheme”.
The search for this operation on Tuesday (15) were in the cities of Manaus/AM, Itamaraju/BA, Campo Grande and Corumbá/MS, Volta Redonda/RJ, Rolim de Moura and Espigão D’Oeste/RO, in five states.
