At the prosecutor’s request, the Le Moule gendarmerie company carried out a series of anti-crime operations in Port-Louis and Morne-à-l’Eau, two communes in northern Grande-Terre, Guadeloupe.[1] The controls took place during the week before 25 November 2025 and were targeted at illicit trafficking in northern Grande-Terre.[2]

The deployment brought together the Le Moule PSIG and DSI units (the Gendarmerie Surveillance and Intervention Platoon and the Surveillance and Intervention Detachment) plus a canine team from Pointe-à-Pitre, in a coordinated arrangement.[1]

Officers found several packets of cannabis and cocaine, alongside a replica of a Glock-type pistol.[1]

The gendarmerie said the operations showed its determination to fight drug sales and the circulation of weapons in Guadeloupe.[2] Guadeloupe La 1ère also reported that simple roadside checks the previous weekend led to four motorists being stopped for use, possession and transport of narcotics, and nine for driving under the influence of drugs, all of whom had their licences withdrawn.[2]
