Quick Glance: Investigation into International Drug Cartel in Bosnia; Suspicions Against Police Officials
- The U.S. government identified Edin "Tito" Gačanin in March 2023 as a significant player in the global cocaine trade.
- Gačanin's connections extended to Raffaele Imperiale, who was arrested in 2021 - a well-known figure in the Camorra, one of Italy’s largest organized crime networks.
- The police operation on Monday targeted individuals suspected of involvement in organized crime, the illicit trafficking of substantial drug quantities, money laundering, and related offenses, in three cities.
- It is reported that the cartel recruited many individuals from Bosnia and Herzegovina and neighboring countries to establish businesses in the Netherlands, Slovenia, Spain, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, to launder the proceeds of its billion-dollar drug trafficking operations.
