The packages were received and distributed in Cuba through intermediaries. In this sense, Liznelis Peña, first lieutenant and criminal investigator, reported that during the investigative process four people were detained, charged with the procedural guarantees corresponding to each of them.
Likewise, it was identified that the source of supply in the United States was Cubans who had their support base in the national territory. These have already been detained and included in the process, according to the MININT.
Camouflaging seasonings with narcotic substances is a frequently used method due to the strong odor of the product.
The first lieutenant raised the alarm and drew attention to those who offer their information to receive packages or serve as “mules”, something that can have criminal consequences if they get involved in this type of crime, whether or not they know the contents of the shipments.
For his part, Abrahan Estonelle Ríos, Lieutenant Colonel of the Technical Department of Investigations, said that the introduction of the synthetic cannabinoid in Cuba has become a challenge for the confrontation agencies, due to the different ways of masking used.
He also commented that many consumers often do not know what type of cannabinoid they are consuming, which is why drug traffickers mix them with other types of substances that are more harmful to health.
Let us remember that almost 700 people have been sanctioned for drug trafficking in Cuba so far in 2023, and, in fact, 92% of these have gone to prison. In addition, attempts were made to bring drugs into Cuba through three international airports. A very prominent example is that of Suriname, from where cocaine has been sent under various disguises.
