Denarc, Rondônia’s Department of Narcotics, and the Receita Federal, Brazil’s
federal customs and tax agency, seized about nine kilograms of skunk at a
transport company in Ji-Paraná, Rondônia, on Friday 6 November 2026.[1]The
drug was hidden in cardboard boxes among parcels that were to be sent by the
company to states in south-eastern Brazil.[2]The parcels were intercepted
before the load left the transport company and could reach the recipients.[3]The officers found the drug while inspecting parcels that would be despatched by
the company.[1]
The inspection was carried out under operations Narke and Protetor das
Fronteiras, which the reports describe as drives against drug trafficking.[1]No one was arrested and no suspect was found.[1]The other accounts say the
officers searched Ji-Paraná for those responsible for posting the parcels and
also found no one.[2]Denarc is continuing the investigation to identify the
senders and the intended recipients, and whether the parcels belong to an
inter-state distribution network.[2]The seized material was sent to the legal
procedures, and a report published the same afternoon as the operation said
there was no information about arrests at that point.[2]
A Diário da Amazônia report credited to Portal SGC gives the same account of
about nine kilograms found in cardboard boxes in a Ji-Paraná transport company.[4]
