Further drug shipments have been intercepted in Vienna at the address of a company that offers to receive anonymised packages for a fee.

On Thursday, an 18-year-old was stopped and reported after picking up a package containing 69.3 grams of cocaine and 64.0 grams of cannabis herb, the Vienna police announced on Saturday. In 2024, there were about 160 package shipments with addictive substances that were addressed to this company and were seized.

In November, the Vienna State Police Directorate initially reported 30 seized package shipments with drugs. The case came to light following a package shipment check in Lower Austria. "The pressure to control is being increased by the criminal police, especially for package shipments to this company. Extensive investigations are underway in the background into the senders and recipients," emphasized police spokeswoman Julia Schick on Saturday.

The currently detained 18-year-old has refused to testify. The Austrian citizen was reported at large by order of the Vienna Public Prosecutor's Office.
