Three arrested in anti-drug operation in Progreso, Yucatán; 166 bags of suspected drugs seized

Federal agents arrested three suspects in the port of Progreso, Yucatán, during an anti-narcotics operation. The investigation was launched by the Specialized Regional Control Prosecutor's Office (FECOR) in Yucatán following an anonymous tip.

The tip reported suspected drug sales occurring at a property in the Colonia Revolución neighborhood. A Federal Public Ministry agent, supported by Federal Ministerial Police, National Guard, and state and naval security forces, executed a search warrant at the location.

During the judicial inspection, authorities confiscated approximately 166 small bags filled with a crystalline solid substance. They also seized nine white tablets in a blister pack, a digital scale, computer equipment, two cell phones, documents with handwritten notes, a roll of aluminum foil, and a roll of plastic wrap. Additionally, six packages of synthetic bags of various sizes, 19 packs of razors, cash, and a building under construction were confiscated.

The detainees were handed over to the Federal Public Ministry, facing charges related to drug trafficking for commercial purposes.
