Organized criminal pays his rent. Last Wednesday, a stock of narcotics as well as a large sum of money were discovered thanks to a bailiff who proceeded to a “door opening” in Mons-en-Barœul, near Lille, in the North . A suspect was arrested, we learned from the Unsa police union.
The facts took place on the sidelines of the passage of the Tour de France in the Lille metropolis, Wednesday. On this occasion, many police officers, including several CRS companies, were deployed along the route. The CRS 11 agents, posted in Mons-en-Barœul, were thus arrested by a bailiff on mission in the area.
The detail that kills, a Rolex at 30,000 euros
The bailiff had been mandated to carry out a “door opening” as part of a procedure launched for the recovery of an illegally occupied apartment. Except that once the door actually opened, an individual fled. By inspecting the premises, the bailiff discovered all the paraphernalia of the perfect drug trafficker. Nearly 30 kg of grass and cannabis resin, 31,000 euros in cash, a money sorter, not to mention the many luxury clothes and a Rolex estimated at 30,000 euros.
Police said the suspect was arrested. In his case, explaining the non-payment of rent will probably be the least of his worries.
