10 kg of marijuana delivered to the country by drone seized

In the Astara district, 10 kg of marijuana was found on the riverbank, which was attempted to be illegally imported into Azerbaijan using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

As reported by BAKU.WS, officers of the district police department detained a previously convicted 37-year-old Javid Hasanov, who came to collect suspicious packages dropped by a drone at the specified location. The coordinates of the drop point were transmitted through the UAV.

It was established that the detainee, who was responsible for delivering drugs to various addresses, acted in a pre-arranged conspiracy with an Iranian citizen, who is currently under investigation.

A criminal case has been initiated on this fact, and a preventive measure in the form of arrest has been chosen for the suspect. The investigation continues.
