Police in Nesher, Israel, have arrested a 57-year-old resident suspected of manufacturing and distributing drug-laced gummy bears and other narcotics. The suspect allegedly operated a drug laboratory from his home, producing candies and other substances intended for distribution at outdoor rave parties.
Following a covert investigation, police, along with the YASAM Carmel special unit, raided the suspect's home last week. During the search, officers discovered the drug production lab and seized thousands of suspectedly drugged gummy bears, drug manufacturing equipment, hundreds of grams of suspected hashish and cannabis, liquid substances, powders, bottles of suspected hash oil, and hundreds of packaging bags.
The suspect was taken into custody for questioning. A court has extended his detention multiple times, most recently until Thursday, October 22, 2026, as the investigation continues.
