Two residents of central Israel, aged 30 and 23, have been indicted on charges of operating a drug trafficking and distribution network using the Telegram app. The investigation, conducted by the Ayalon District's Crime Fighting Unit, revealed that the suspects allegedly sold various types of dangerous drugs in cities across the Sharon, Central, and Tel Aviv regions to multiple customers, including minors. The 30-year-old suspect, from Ramat Gan, was arrested two weeks ago following extensive investigative work, including the use of technological means. The second suspect, a 23-year-old from Tel Aviv, was apprehended while hiding in a South Tel Aviv apartment after evading police. A search of his residence uncovered large quantities of drugs suspected to be held for trafficking and distribution. The police have gathered evidence linking both individuals to significant drug deals, including those involving minors, facilitated by digital communication for customer contact and transaction coordination. The Tel Aviv District Prosecutor's Office has filed a serious indictment against the two, containing 24 counts of offenses including trafficking dangerous drugs, possession of drugs not for personal use, and other drug distribution-related charges.
