Federal Police dismantled a suspected drug-sales premises (kiosco narco) in the Pocito department of San Juan.[1] The Federal Police Investigations Department ran the procedure that began in early November from a report filed with the San Juan Federal Prosecutor’s Unit led by prosecutor Carolina Menéndez.[1] The Federal Warrants Court under Judge Leopoldo Rago Gallo authorised the search of the premises on calle Lemos in Pocito.[1]

The Federal Police seized more than 100 doses of cocaine and marijuana prepared for sale, along with psychotropic substances, one Cannabis sativa plant, two tumbero-style knives, a marijuana grinder, a precision scale and mobile phones.[1] Investigators ran intelligence and surveillance that indicated the property on calle Lemos in Pocito was being used to sell cocaine and marijuana.[1] During the raid, officers seized more than 100 doses of cocaine, marijuana and psychotropic substances, and one adult man was detained.[1] As a result of the procedure, officers detained one adult Argentine man, the presumed person involved in the illicit activity.[1]

The detainee and the seized items were placed at the disposal of the presiding judge in a case for breach of the narcotics law.[1]
