The drugs were found on the shores of El Cerrador beach, Tocópero municipality, where the police-military commission was carrying out the fragmentary Operation 04-24 Sabanas Altas, aimed at dismantling groups that generate violence and organized crime. The eight panels had a total weight of 3 kilos 800 grams, according to a report from Detachment 132 of the GNB.
