Argentina’s Federal Police Department of Federal Investigations dismantled a drug trafficking organization in Rosario. The operation was conducted under the Flag Plan launched by the Ministry of National Security.
The investigation began in May after an anonymous tip alleged drug sales in La Lagunita, a neighborhood in western Rosario. Police identified people working in different roles, including distributors, sellers, “soldaditos” and money collectors.
The proceeds were handed to a person believed to head the organization linked to the “Los Menores” gang. The Micro-Trafficking Investigation Prosecutor’s Office of the Public Prosecutor’s Office took part in the investigation. Rosario’s Court of First Instance ordered 31 raids.
