Milan, June 28 2020 - They dealt shaboo and at the end of the day they handed over the proceeds to a woman in a hotel in the Affori area. Two citizens of Chinese origin were arrested on June 18, following a tailing resulting from a service for the prevention and repression of petty crime phenomena.

The agents of the Narcotics Enforcement Unit in plain clothes noticed two young people of Chinese origins, JX, 21 years old, and DH, 29 years old, standing on the pavement and looking around cautiously in Via Valtellina. After a few minutes a third man on a bicycle approached them, took something from the hands of one of the two and handed the other some banknotes, before immediately leaving.

The two young people immediately boarded a Mercedes, which the officers decided to follow, and moved to the Baggio area, where they entered the atrium of an apartment building for a few minutes. After meeting a third person they went out again and got back into the car, and then stopped to eat in a bar in Affori. 

Around 22pm, DH, having left the bar, went briskly to the lobby of a hotel opposite, where he met with a woman, also of Chinese nationality (WYH), to whom he handed over a pack of banknotes . Then getting back into the car, the two boys headed to a building in Via Padova.

Stopped at this point by the officers for a check, JX spontaneously handed over an envelope with 1,4 grams of shaboo, while DH resisted, hitting one of the officers several times: he too had more than a gram of the same substance on him. During the subsequent house search, another 10 transparent cellophane sachets containing shaboo were found for a total weight of more than 22 grams, as well as packaging material and a precision scale.

At the same time, the second patrol of the Unit, which had stopped at the hotel in Affori, first searched the woman who had received the banknotes and then the room in which she was registered, where 2.200 euros divided into banknotes of different denominations were found. The woman is under investigation in a state of freedom.

GC, a 25-year-old Italian man, was arrested on June 44 for cocaine dealing. The intervention arose from a report of a Citroen C3 in which a couple who were probably also in possession of a firearm had been seen dealing in the Ca' Granda area. 

Having identified the car, in which first the man and then a 23-year-old Italian woman (RM) had gotten into, the agents of the Drug Enforcement Unit followed it, thus being able to note several stops in buildings in the area, with the man who always remained in the car and the woman who got out, entered a door and left shortly after. 

From the search of the man's apartment, carried out with the help of the Dog Unit, eight wraps of cocaine weighing a total of 8,5 grams were found, hidden in a box of medicines, as well as a precision scale. The search at the residence address of the woman, investigated in a state of freedom, however, gave a negative result.
