They are suspected of, as an organized group, illegally producing and processing marijuana in a specially made laboratory in Borca, in a hall of about 200 square meters, on the first floor a the house and in a shed behind the house.

The complete production process, from planting to packaging took place in these three rooms equipped with chemical preparations and technical devices used for cultivation, growth and processing of the narcotic drug.
