The Katowice division of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CB¦) has managed to intercept a gang which has smuggled at least 300kg of marijuana worth z³.12 million over the past eight months from the Netherlands.

The oldest gangster was 60 years old, and was pretending to be a tourist.

The CB¦ officers had been following his vehicle for several hours, and stopped him when he finally arrived in Chorzów to unload the drugs.

At the same time another group of officers detained the head of the gang and three delivery men working for him. They also found 16kg of marijuana as well as other drugs in the warehouse. The criminals now face up to 10 years in jail.
