Following a tip-off about drug smuggling from the border police in Passau, police officers in Vienna indeed discovered several kilos of cannabis in a coach bus that was travelling from Amsterdam to the federal capital.
On December 16th, around noon, a tip from investigators of the Bavarian police about a possible case of drug smuggling was received at the Police Cooperation Centre in Passau. Officers of the Border Police Inspection had arrested a 35-year-old man (StA.: Bulgaria), who was in possession of one kilogram of marijuana.
The man is alleged to have hidden further quantities of narcotics in a coach bus from Amsterdam to Vienna. The officers immediately informed the Vienna police. In the cargo hold of the coach bus, which had by then arrived in Vienna, two suitcases were indeed found containing a total of nine kilograms of cannabis in vacuum-sealed plastic bags and were seized. The 35-year-old was taken to a correctional facility.
