Romania: Police Roust Alleged Drug Traffickers Out of Sewers

14:56, July 24, 2015

Romanian authorities have raided the sewers in the North Station area of Bucharest, as well as several nearby buildings, to crack down on what they say is a drug-trafficking gang based in the underground tunnels of the capital.

Prosecutors ordered the sewers searched Tuesday to tackle a ring of 23 people they believe deals heroin, methadone and various other drugs throughout the area. They arrested a 41-year-old man they say leads the group and who has "achieved significant financial benefit" from these activities.

While the identity of this man was not officially released, local media say he is Florin Hora, who uses the street name "Bruce Lee."
