Brașov drug dealers throw packets out window as police raid apartment, two arrested
A 31-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman were arrested after a DIICOT raid in Brașov, Romania, where the man threw drug packets from the kitchen window as officers broke down the door.
The raid
On 2 July 2026, special forces officers from the Brașov County Police Inspectorate raided the apartment of two suspects on the top floor of a building in Brașov. As the masked officers broke down the door, the male suspect threw multiple foil packets containing drugs from the kitchen window. A police team stationed outside the building filmed the moment, and the footage will be used as evidence in the trial.
In the context of the medical intervention and the on-site investigation, quantities of MDMB-4en-PINACA were found and seized.
Investigation origins
The case began in February 2026, when two 23-year-old customers were hospitalised in serious condition after consuming synthetic drugs bought from the pair. DIICOT prosecutors and the Brașov Organised Crime Brigade then launched an investigation that included months of surveillance and documented multiple transactions.
The investigation revealed that during February 2026 the defendants sold such substances to two young men, both aged 23, who consumed them together and subsequently required specialist medical care.
Evidence seized
During the search, investigators recovered approximately 60 foil packets containing high-risk drugs and psychoactive substances. The substances identified included MDMB-4en-PINACA, MDMB-INACA, 5F-MDMB-PINACA, 5F-ADB, and MDMB-FUBINACA. Officers also found objects with drug traces, documents, cash in lei, and other evidence.
From the evidence administered in the case it emerged that, between February and June 2026, the 31- and 28-year-old defendants procured, possessed and sold, in the municipality of Brașov, high-risk drugs and psychoactive products in the form of plant material impregnated with MDMB-4en-PINACA, MDMB-INACA, 5F-ADB and MDMB-FUBINACA.
Arrests and legal steps
The two suspects were detained following the raid. On 3 July, the judge of rights and liberties at the Brașov Tribunal admitted the DIICOT proposal and ordered their preventive arrest. The investigation continues to identify suppliers and any other accomplices.
