Nine adults, six men and three women, were detained in the city of Córdoba after
an investigation lasting about four months.[1]
Investigators seized 885 cannabis sativa plants.[1] Officers also seized 13
shotgun cartridges, $697,500 in cash and other items of interest to the case.[1]
The dismantled drug sale points operated independently, with no links between
those responsible for them.[1] Some of the raided homes were near the
Polideportivo Social Policial Anexo, a community sports facility.[1] The
Fiscalía de Lucha contra el Narcotráfico del Primer Turno supervised the
procedures and ordered the detainees and seized items sent to judicial
headquarters under National Narcotics Law No. 23.737.[1]

Open questions the AI reported
- No separate date for the raids was published; 2 November 2026 is the publication date of both sources.
- No number or weight was published for the cocaine and marijuana doses, so no cannabis weight in kilograms could be recorded.
- The $697,500 was cash seized in the raids, not an official valuation of the drugs.
- The official headline rounds the seizure to 800 plants while both texts give the precise count of 885 plants used here.
- The detainees were not named and no charges or court outcome beyond transfer to judicial headquarters were reported.
- The MPF Córdoba page carries five uncaptioned photographs that could not be confidently matched to the seizure, so only the captioned ElDoce photo of the seized plants is listed as media.
- Left out, as its quotation was not found in ElDoce: Officers of the Fuerza Policial Antinarcotráfico (FPA) carried out seven raids at seven properties in Policial Anexo, a barrio neighbourhood of Córdoba, in a case described as narcomenudeo, retail drug dealing.
- Left out, as its quotation was not found in ElDoce: They also seized doses of cocaine and marijuana alongside the plants.
