The police officers of the Zagreb police department have completed an extensive criminal investigation targeting two men, aged 31 and 35, suspected of serious drug-related crimes. According to the investigation, it is believed that the suspects acquired large quantities of cocaine and marijuana in an unspecified manner. After acquisition, they concealed, weighed, and repackaged the drugs in two apartments - one where they reside in the Stenjevec area, and another which they occasionally use in Črnomerec. It is suspected that these narcotic substances were then sold on the black market.

Searches conducted by the police officers in the aforementioned apartments yielded a total of 595.6 grams of marijuana, distributed in 15 packages, along with digital scales used for precise measurement. It was particularly noted that both apartments showed clear signs of being used for preparing drugs for further distribution, and other items related to illegal activities were also found.

In addition to the apartments, the police also searched the vehicle used by the suspects. An additional amount of marijuana, totaling 345.4 grams, was found in a large bag, as well as a significant amount of cash suspected to be earned from illegal drug sales.

This case reflects a broader problem associated with drug production and trafficking in the Zagreb area and beyond. Increasingly, police investigations result in the discovery of not only narcotic drugs but also sophisticated laboratories for growing cannabis. A recent case where a laboratory was found in the Samobor area shows that organized crime is increasingly shifting towards sophisticated methods of growing and processing drugs. In that case, the police officers found specialized equipment for growing marijuana, including devices for emitting light, ventilation, and air filtration, which allows for creating optimal conditions for growing plants used in marijuana production. These findings further complicate the fight against organized crime and require even greater attention and resources from the police.

After the investigation was completed, the suspects were handed over to the detention supervisor, and a criminal complaint was filed against them with the Municipal State Attorney's Office in Novi Zagreb. The detention and filing of the criminal complaint against the suspects initiate further proceedings before the competent institutions that will work on clarifying all circumstances of this case. Meanwhile, the Zagreb police continue with intensive efforts to combat criminal activities related to drugs.

Crime news desk

The crime news desk operates as an independent editorial team that deals daily with topics requiring particular seriousness, patience, and journalistic responsibility. Our articles emerge from many years of experience working with complex stories involving crime, the judiciary, security challenges, and events that shape society in its most sensitive moments. These topics are handled by people accustomed to working under pressure, verifying every piece of information, and understanding the broader picture behind each case.

Professional work in this field is not based solely on monitoring official reports or court proceedings. Behind every article stands the personal dedication of journalists who have followed the development of criminal phenomena for years, spoken with relevant sources, and sought to bring readers closer to a reality that often remains hidden behind short news pieces. The desk adheres to the principle that no story is “just news,” but a reflection of situations that affect entire communities, families, and institutions.

In our work, great attention is devoted to understanding context: how an event arises, what preceded it, what consequences it leaves behind, and why it matters to the public. That is why the texts often rely on the experience of editors who have followed criminal cases for decades, who know the course of investigations, and who understand the work of police, prosecutors, and courts. Such experience enables us to interpret events clearly and responsibly, without sensationalism, yet with enough detail to give the reader a complete picture.

The desk pays particular attention to an ethical approach to sensitive topics. Every word must be measured, every piece of information verified, and every article written with respect for the people affected by tragic or difficult situations. For this reason, our articles strive for balance: to inform without harming, to explain without prejudging, to bring the public closer to what is happening while remaining professional and dignified.

Through everything we do, we seek to maintain readers’ trust by providing clear, accurate, and credible information about events that often provoke concern and questions. Crime reporting is not just a section but a responsible journalistic discipline that requires experience, seriousness, and a deep understanding of society. Our desk is committed to this every day, convinced that quality information strengthens public safety, trust, and awareness of the realities that shape today’s world.
