A 'narco-grandmother' and her minor grandson arrested for trafficking in Valencia

The Civil Guard has arrested a 72-year-old woman and her 17-year-old minor grandson for drug trafficking. Likewise, a woman has been investigated who used her two minor children, ages 9 and 12, to sell drugs at her home, even going so far as to use her eldest son to make deliveries.

The operation began when the Civil Guard learned, at the end of February, that a woman could be using her grandson for drug trafficking in a town in La Ribera Baixa.

Once identified, the agents proceeded to arrest these two people, since the grandmother also had two judicial reports of arrest and imprisonment.

At the same time, the agents were able to verify the existence of two children who could frequently be witnessing the retail of narcotic substances in their own home and that even the eldest of them could be being used to carry out the sales.

Given the seriousness of the events and the risk to the lives of the minors, the Civil Guard focused all its efforts on trying to identify those responsible, locating a 45-year-old woman, the mother of the minors.

For this reason, two homes were entered and searched, in which 4,245 euros in cash and several doses of cocaine were seized. The proceedings have been delivered to the Court of First Instance and Instruction Number 2 of Sueca.
