In Dnipro, law enforcement officers uncovered and shut down an underground drug laboratory where candies and e-liquids containing narcotics were being produced. According to the investigation, the crime was organized by a 32-year-old resident of the city, who recruited accomplices.

To produce drugs, the perpetrators rented and equipped an apartment, where they established a system for wholesale supply of narcotics and psychotropic substances. In their "laboratory," they added cannabinoids to chocolate and gummy candies, as well as mixed cannabis extract with liquids for electronic cigarettes.

The criminals were selling the finished product through Telegram channels, postal deliveries, and their own delivery services across all of Ukraine. During the searches, law enforcement officers seized over 3 thousand candies, more than 4 thousand containers of liquid, equipment for producing drugs, and money in various currencies totaling almost 1,8 million hryvnias.
