Illicit amphetamine factory with two production lines raided outside Warsaw

The police have uncovered a major illegal amphetamine factory in a laboratory in Pruszkow just outside Warsaw, where half a ton of narcotics have been produced thus far this year.The market value of the illicit amphetamines exceeds $5 million. According to the police, production was overseen by organized crime groups from throughout the country. The factory was equipped with two production lines, one for production of liquid amphetamine, the other for processing the finished narcotics. The police caught the criminals by surprise at a moment when they had just produced 15 liters of liquid amphetamine and were preparing to process it. According to police experts, illicit narcotics producers have changed their way of manufacturing drugs, now locating their factories in small, inconspicuous houses more difficult to detect than production workshops.
