107 packages of marijuana worth over 370,000 euros were discovered by customs officers and border police officers at the Kapitan Andreevo BCP during a joint inspection of a car leaving the country.
On 04.03.2026, at around 16:30, a car with a foreign registration arrived at the checkpoint. The driver, with dual Albanian and Serbian citizenship, was traveling alone from Serbia through Bulgaria to Turkey. The car was selected through operational analysis for a thorough customs inspection. During the control actions, in which customs officers and border police officers with a Pirin service dog took part, it was established that caches were built in the factory cavities in the floor and bumpers of the car, in which a total of 107 packages containing dry green grassy mass were hidden. During the field drug test, the substance in the packages reacted to marijuana. The seized quantity is a total of 45,760 kg gross weight worth 374,347.46 euros at prices for the needs of the judicial system.
A pre-trial investigation has been initiated into the case by an investigating customs inspector under the supervision of the District Prosecutor's Office - Haskovo.
