Three men were taken to the Civil Police after a Military Police approach in the area known as Invasão do Vila Nova in Parauapebas, in southeastern Pará, on the night of Friday 30 October 2026.[1] Police stopped Clevemberg da Silva Conceição and found about two grams of cannabis-like material hidden in his shoe, and police said he claimed to have bought it from Adiel Costa dos Santos.[1] Adiel Costa dos Santos ran into a residence when officers approached, according to police.[1] Fernando Santos Meireles was found lying in a hammock in the residence with nothing illicit on him and said he was Adiel’s friend and was only resting there.[1] The three men and all the seized material were presented to the Civil Police for further procedures and investigation.[1]
Inside the residence, officers found about 50 grams of cannabis-like material in a backpack.[1] Officers also seized materials described as having characteristics similar to cocaine and crack, alongside the cannabis.[1] On a table officers found several cell phones and two precision scales, and three bicycles were found in an area of the residence.[1]
The 34th Military Police Battalion said officers responded after residents reported intense suspicious movement and possible drug sales between streets 3, 4 and 5.[1] A second account of the same operation says the police record notes handcuffs were used but gives no details of the circumstances.[2]
