As part of its operations to combat drug trafficking, the units of the National Gendarmerie carried out several actions during the week which led to significant results.

A search revealed a bag containing 16 packets of hashish and four ecstasy tablets concealed in his pockets. Following questioning, he was taken into custody for drug trafficking and distribution.

Furthermore, the Fimela Territorial Brigade, after receiving information about an Indian hemp trafficking network in the village of Pethie Makha, carried out an operation on the premises on Monday, November 17, 2025. The gendarmes were able to seize 19 packages of Indian hemp, for a total weight of 580 kilograms.
