A total of five drug labs spread across the Netherlands are said to have been deployed for the production of the synthetic drugs. They worked together with Mexican ‘cooks’, who were flown in to the Netherlands to lead the production. The organization also had at least six warehouses and laundries were found where cocaine was processed.
The organization is suspected of smuggling 1,200 kilograms of drugs.

S. says he is innocent, but refuses to elaborate on the case. He therefore faces four years in prison.
