Pazardzhik: Series of Police Actions Led to Discoveries of Illegal Weapons, Marijuana, and Thefts

A range of actions by the local police led to a series of discoveries in Panagyurishte, Peshtera, Velingrad and other settlements in the region. In Panagyurishte, criminologists detained a 48-year-old man after an illegally possessed 12-gauge hunting rifle was found at his home. The weapon was seized, and the man was detained for 24 hours.

During a search of a dwelling in Peshtera, occupied by a 24-year-old man, 10 packets of a dry green leafy matter were found. A field test indicated that the substance was marijuana. The man was also detained.

The police also report the solving of four thefts in Velingrad, Pazardzhik and Septemvri. The perpetrators of thefts have been identified: a motor chainsaw, women's cosmetics worth approximately 130 euros, a mobile phone, and fuel additives from a gas station on the Thrace Highway.

In all cases, pre-trial proceedings have been initiated under the supervision of the prosecutor's office.
