Drugs Squad Police in Gozo have arrested a 55-year-old man from Victoria, Gozo in connection with trafficking and possession of drugs.

The man was found to be in possession of a number of sachets, which, Police said, were suspected to be heroin. “The amount of sachets found shows that it was not for his personal use.”

Police said that from a search carried out in his home, they found another sachet of the same drug, an amount of cash and a scale.

Police investigations are ongoing, whilst a Magisterial inquiry has been appointed into the case.

The man is expected to be arraigned in court later today.
