In Dnipro, a woman was arrested for smuggling methadone into a correctional facility by mixing it into food products.

In Dnipro, law enforcement officials have uncovered a drug trafficking scheme orchestrated by a 36-year-old woman. The arrested individual was sending drugs in packages to inmates of a correctional facility. This is reported by "Vidomo," citing the police of the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The criminal's operation was meticulously planned - she mixed methadone into food products that were then sent to the recipients—convicts serving their sentences in the local correctional colony. This allowed her to bypass the strict controls within the facility and ensured the delivery of the drugs.

The arrest of the suspect was the result of a lengthy and thorough investigation, during which irrefutable evidence of her criminal activities was gathered, including witness testimonies, photographic and video materials, as well as forensic results of the seized substances.

During a search at the suspect's residence in Dnipro, police discovered a significant quantity of narcotic substances. The seized drug "kit" included several zip-lock bags with amphetamines, a separate package of methadone, and a bag of cannabis.

In addition to the drugs, the search revealed scales with remnants of a powdery substance, presumably narcotics. This indicates that the suspect was independently packaging and weighing the drugs in preparation for shipment.

Law enforcement also seized several mobile phones and SIM cards from various operators, which were used to coordinate criminal activities and communicate with clients. Analyzing the data from these phones and SIM cards will provide additional information about the drug distribution network and help identify other members of the criminal group.
