After several months of investigation, the gendarmes of the Limoges research section (Haute-Vienne) have just dismantled at the beginning of December a clandestine SME which will have ensured in a few months around a hundred deliveries like this to numerous French prisons, from Luynes (Bouches-du-Rhône) to Fresnes (Val-de-Marne) via Bois-d’Arcy (Yvelines), Tarbes (Pyrénées-Atlantiques) or Metz (Moselle).
