The coordinated operation began on the other side of the border, where Albanian police arrested six people suspected by Montenegrin police of smuggling some 2.5 tons of skunk marijuana at the end of last year and early this year.

The suspects included members of seven criminal groups from Montenegro, of whom one was the ringleader, one a police officer, as well as one prisons administration official from Spuž, according to the Montenegrin police.
