Prosecutors in Tula’s Privokzalny district sent a criminal case against a 19-year-old local resident to court on charges of attempted drug sale and illegal drug storage.[1] He faces attempted unlawful sale of drugs by a group with prior agreement using the internet on a large scale, and unlawful acquisition and storage in a significant amount.[2] The case was sent to the Privokzalny District Court of Tula for consideration on the merits.[1]
Investigators say that from July to August 2026 the young man conspired online with another person, collected a wholesale batch of synthetic drug from a cache, repacked it and placed it in dead-drop caches.[1] Regional police officers stopped him before he could carry the plan through.[1] Police seized 5.53 grams of mephedrone from illicit trafficking in the operation.[1] A search of his home found five packets containing at least 10 grams of hashish, the cannabis component recorded here.[1]
The second account describes the hashish as five transparent polymer packets found during the home search.[2] No trial outcome has been reported yet, with the court stage still to come.[1]
