On Thursday (12), the 28th Independent Company of Military Police (CIPM) in Juruti, located in western Pará, Brazil, conducted an operation to dismantle a drug sales point. This action was prompted by intelligence indicating that a specific residence was being used for drug trafficking. During their investigation, police officers apprehended a man found in possession of a substance believed to be crack cocaine, which he admitted to purchasing from a known drug dealing site.

Subsequent efforts led police to the identified residence, where they discovered a significant amount of illegal drugs, cash, a precision scale, mobile phones, and replicas of firearms. These findings pointed to involvement in drug trafficking operations. Two suspects were taken into custody and transported to the local police station for further processing and investigation.

This operation highlights ongoing efforts by local law enforcement to combat drug trafficking in the region, particularly in areas identified as hotspots for illegal activity. The authorities are likely to continue monitoring and conducting operations aimed at reducing drug-related crime in Juruti and surrounding areas.
