Swiss police catch more than a dozen ***** traffickers in Verbier bust

GENEVA (Reuters) – Swiss police have arrested 15 ***** traffickers operating around the Verbier mountain resort as part of the biggest ever swoop in the surrounding Valais canton, police said on Tuesday.

A multi-month investigation showed that the 15 French nationals were involved in trafficking record ***** volumes for the canton, police said. They are suspected of selling over 10 kilograms of ******** as well as smaller quantities of ketamine, ecstasy and cannabis, some of which was seized.

“This marks a first in terms of the scale of the arrests made and seizures made. Investigations are continuing and should lead to further arrests,” the Valais police statement said.

Verbier, a French-speaking Alpine village located in the southern French-speaking canton, is one of the world’s most expensive ski resorts, with a party scene as famous as its slopes.

Police said ***** use was hardly limited to the Verbier area, noting that ******** consumption has increased generally across the canton.
