🇦🇷 Calle Fortín Aguilar al 65, Resistencia, Chaco · Argentina
Officers of the División Patrulla Preventiva, the Chaco police’s preventive
patrol division, went to a house on calle Fortín Aguilar at about number 65 in
Resistencia on the morning of 9 November 2026 to secure the belongings of a
woman who had been taken away hours earlier for causing disorder and damage at
her former partner’s home.[1][2][3][4][5]The owner of the house told them the woman had
rented a room there for about six weeks and handed over items among her
belongings voluntarily.[1][4][5]
Among the items were two seedlings that appeared to be cannabis, five mushrooms
of different sizes, a wrapper with marijuana flowers and indoor growing
equipment including LED panels, lamps, pots, fertilisers and a grow tent.[1][2][3][4][5]The División Drogas Peligrosas, the provincial dangerous-drugs unit, carried out
field tests that were positive for marijuana on the seedlings examined, while a
paper sample tested negative.[1][3][4][5]
The woman turned up during the procedure, became agitated and was aggressive
again towards the owner, and officers detained her.[1][4][5]The Fiscalía Antidrogas
N° 1, the anti-drug prosecutor’s office led by Dr Lovey Pessano, ordered the
seizure of items linked to the case except the cash and ordered the woman
released after the file was recorded.[1][2][3][4][5]
The seized items and the file went to the Comisaría Séptima Metropolitana, the
city’s seventh metropolitan police station, for the courts.[1][2][4][5]
The owner of the house had begun removing the woman’s belongings and moving them to another part of the property because of repeated problems he had with her.[3]The woman had also previously been taken in over an incident of damage reported by her former partner, a case in which Prosecutor’s Office No. 15 ordered her notified while free.[3]
