The Brazilian federal police seized the highest quantity of cocaine in the history of #RiodeJaneiro. It was almost 2.5 tons in the city of #Caxias. According to a news media called #OGlobo, 2.2 lb (1 kg) of cocaine was worth 213 thousand reals in 2016. If we consider the value hasn't changed, those 2.5 tons mean over 532 billion reals.

Also, the federal police arrested the middleman responsible for supplying guns to the #Rio's biggest criminal gang.

The #Bolsonaro administration organized 107 auctions in 2020 (so far) in order to sell drug-dealing related goods that were seized by the police. In 2019 they were 11 and in 2018 only 7. The total raised was 1.2 billion reals, a record high, and this money is invested in the law enforcement and in antidrug treatment and prevention projects.
