A 35-year-old man was captured on suspicion of trafficking, manufacturing or carrying narcotics during a National Police procedure in the Oasis neighborhood of Rivera, Huila.[1] The operation took place at night under the Plan Cazador strategy while uniformed officers were carrying out registration and control activities.[1]

During the search, officers found a bag holding 57 marijuana cigarettes inside a backpack he was carrying, and they seized the cigarettes.[1] The detainee was placed at the disposal of the competent authority together with the seized substance to answer for the alleged offense.[1]

The commander of the Neiva Metropolitan Police, Colonel Alex Andrés Muñoz Ausecha, said controls will continue to combat local drug trafficking.[1] He invited residents to report activities related to drug dealing in the area as part of those continued controls against street-level sales.[1]
