🇧🇷 Estrada do Alegrete, Encantado, Rio Grande do Sul · Brazil
Military Police officers on ostensive patrol stopped a man in the early hours of
Saturday, 31 October, on Estrada do Alegrete in Encantado.[1] The operation
was carried out by officers of the 22nd Military Police Battalion, the 22º BPM.[1] After the stop, the man was taken for a forensic examination and then
presented at the Police Station for registration of the incident.[1]
During the search, officers found 17 ecstasy tablets, 34 portions of cocaine, 10
marijuana cigarettes and one additional portion of marijuana.[1] Officers also
seized a mobile phone during the same action.[1] Ecstasy and cocaine are not
cannabis, so the cannabis component of this mixed seizure is the 10 marijuana
cigarettes and the one additional marijuana portion.[2]
The 22nd BPM’s Social Communication office supplied the information on the
patrol, the drugs found and the referral to the police station.[2] The
marijuana was described as cigarettes plus one loose portion, distinct from the
counted ecstasy tablets and cocaine portions found with the man.[2]
