Security stops three drug dealers in North Sfax

National Security Unit Northern Sfax carried out an operation last night that resulted in the arrest of three people suspected of being connected to a drug-trafficking network. The operation came as a result of investigative press releases and field follow-up that enabled the agencies to track down suspects and pinpoint their precise locations before intervening and arresting them.

Security units during the raid seized one and a half plates of Indian cannabis, plus an electronic balance and a set of tools suspected of being used to manufacture and distribute the drugs. They also settled a significant amount of money that was likely to come from the above-mentioned promotions in the region.

The completed security investigations showed that two of the three detainees were being inspected and prosecuted for the benefit of different security units.

Sfax security units had on 3 November 2026 overthrown three drug dealers, as field research revealed that two of the detainees were wanted and previously investigated for the benefit of multiple security units.

The operation is part of a series of intensive security pursuits targeting drug trafficking networks in various Sfax boroughs, with competent teams tracking suspects and bringing them to justice after legal investigations are completed.
