Tijuana, BC - The director of Preventive State Police (PEP), Marco Antonio Montoya Gomez, confirmed that 9,041 kilos of marijuana were seized by elements of the Corporation on Monday afternoon in housing at ejido Francisco Villa.
In a press conference Marco Antonio Montoya Gomez, in a hesitant manner rejected versions stating the drug had already been seized. The State official said there were 2,164 packages of marijuana, apparently packages having different characteristics, so it is suspected that the drug belonged to several shipments.
Similarly, Montoya Gomez stated is not known which criminal group that operates in the entity the seized drugs belong to, said the Preventive State Police. The director of the PEP, pointed out that it is the first occasion that occurred in a marijuana seizure in the city in which packages were marked identifying their specific weights.
He reiterated that the seizure of the drugs occurred after an anonymous complaint was received, "We also deny there was a confiscation of a greater volume reported during 2013". Marco Antonio Montoya Gómez, director of the Preventive State Police, said elements of the Attorney General's Office (PGR) delegation in Baja California, reported on drugs that already had been seized.
