Greek law enforcement has apprehended two men suspected of being involved in a large-scale international drug trafficking ring responsible for exporting crystal meth and MDMA to Australia.
In what has been described as one of Greece’s largest drug seizures, authorities confiscated approximately 56 kilograms of MDMA—the key ingredient in ecstasy pills—and nearly 30 kilograms of methamphetamine. The drugs were discovered hidden in boxes, cleverly concealed among olive oil and olive containers, in a warehouse in Athens.
The operation was launched after a tip-off led officers from Greece’s anti-drug unit to monitor the two suspects as they transferred the contraband to another warehouse in the city. The arrests followed a detailed surveillance operation, with the suspects detained as they attempted to move the drugs.
Investigations are ongoing, and police are working to uncover further details about the criminal network.
