Novi Sad is back in the spotlight thanks to police actions that sound straight out of a crime thriller! Two young men were arrested for unauthorized production and trafficking of drugs, and their arrest stories read like an action movie script.
First up, S. J. from the Šid area was caught after police found seven packages of marijuana weighing about one kilogram. But he didn’t just give up quietly – he tried to flee in a car! Of course, the police caught up with him and filed criminal charges. He’s been detained for 48 hours and now awaits trial before the higher public prosecutor in Novi Sad.
But wait, there’s more! In another case, M. V., a Novi Sad resident, was arrested after police seized about 2.5 kilograms of narcotics – 1.5 kilograms of marijuana and one kilogram of cocaine, plus two digital scales. These were found in two apartments in Novi Sad where the suspect was staying illegally. He too has been detained and is awaiting justice.
These operations show that Novi Sad police are wide awake and ready to crack down on illegal drug trade. But is this just the tip of the iceberg? How many more cases go undetected? And why do young people get involved in such dangerous games?
While justice fights crime, the citizens of Novi Sad can only wonder – will the police catch the next one in time, or will drugs find their way back to the streets?
