Agents of the Civil Guard intercepted a total of 413 kilos of hashish oxygen cylinders transported by a truck that intended to ship the merchandise from Ceuta to Algeciras aboard the 'Festivo' in the afternoon of Oct 24, 2022.

They observed signs of possible manipulation in some oxygen cylinders for industrial use. Given this circumstance, and after the recognition and detection of the drug specialty dog, it was determined that there were sufficient indications to proceed with the opening of one of the bottles in which 27,000 grams of hashish were found. A count that has continued in the morning of Oct 26, with the inspection of all the cylinders, locating drugs in 15 of them. Although the first information pointed to the arrest of the truck driver as the alleged perpetrator of a crime, in the end the arrest did not take place, after it was determined that he himself was unaware of the presence of the drug inside the container. The Civil Guard started investigation to determine those responsible.
