Police dismantle large drug trafficking network in Athens

Greek authorities have dismantled a major Athens‑based drug trafficking network involved in large‑scale narcotics distribution and money laundering across the capital.

Greek police have arrested numerous suspects in Athens after dismantling a large organized crime network linked to extensive drug trafficking and money laundering operations. The group allegedly distributed significant quantities of narcotics across the city, using complex financial structures to launder illicit proceeds. Law enforcement conducted coordinated raids at several locations, seizing drugs, cash, and contraband linked to the network. Officials emphasized that the operation targeted a long‑standing criminal structure that had been active in the Attica region for several years. The investigation continues as authorities assess links to other organized groups operating in Greece.
