No qualms were shown in hiding their illicit business, and it was so evident that eventually, they were caught. An alleged 'dealer' maintaining a drug sales point in the Alicante town of Gata de Gorgos had no qualms about throwing the substances demanded by his clients into the street to avoid coming down to hand them over when they came to the house to buy them.

The Civil Guard documented the unusual behavior of this 27-year-old man, who has already been arrested as part of the 'Drocat' operation, which dismantled a drug sales point in this municipality operating in the Marina Alta region. The judicial authority has ordered his release with precautionary measures.
Investigations began in July when agents obtained key information about a resident of the municipality who supplied drugs. Among the consumers were two minors.
The ROCA Team of the Civil Guard Company of the Alicante town of Calp took charge of the investigations. In the first phase, the suspect's home was located, and intensified surveillance confirmed the suspicions.
According to the Armed Institute, the trafficker used his home, located on the second floor, as an operations center, where he conducted drug transactions both inside the property and in the public road.
On some occasions, the individual threw substances from his house window to buyers waiting in the street. The flow of clients was continuous, to the point that some of them waited their turn to receive the substance.

Home Search
On October 13, after gathering sufficient evidence of illegal activity, and with the support of the Canine Service of the Alicante Civil Guard, entry and search of the home were conducted.
In this operation, 16 grams of cocaine, 12 grams of various substances for drug cutting, 2,605 euros in cash, 131 grams of marijuana, and 66 grams of hashish were seized, along with various materials for cutting, handling, and weighing the drugs.
The detainee, along with the seized items, was brought before the Court of First Instance and Instruction number two of Dénia, which has ordered his release with precautionary measures.
