“Thanks to the rigorous search and control procedures carried out by the police in the southern Magdalena region, the capture of this man known as ‘Wilmer’ was achieved. During the search procedure, this subject was found to have 210 grams of bazuco wrapped in paper, enough material to process multiple doses of this illicit substance,” said Colonel Javier Alberto Duarte Reyes, commander of the Magdalena Police Department.
He also indicated that, “the National Police appreciates the collaboration of citizens and invites them to continue reporting any suspicious activity through the emergency lines, 123 or the Quadrant number of their sector, in order to continue working together for an environment safer and drug free.”
