Carabinieri from the Giugliano in Campania company arrested two young people, aged 21 and 16, in Sant'Antimo following a suspected drug exchange observed in Via Saragat.

According to Il Mattino, the two were travelling on a scooter when officers intervened during what appeared to be a handover. A second local report, from Cronache della Campania, independently describes the same scooter-based exchange and arrests.

What officers reported finding

The reports state that the 16-year-old was carrying:

  • five doses of hashish
  • three doses of marijuana
  • one dose of cocaine
  • 50 euros in cash
  • two mobile phones allegedly used in the dealing activity

Both outlets attribute the drugs, cash and phones to the minor.

Custody and identification

The 21-year-old was taken to prison, while the 16-year-old was transferred to the Colli Aminei first-reception centre.

Cronache della Campania identifies the adult suspect as Alessandro Sorvino, born in Frattamaggiore on 9 February 2005. The identity of the 16-year-old was not disclosed in the reports.

What remains unreported

The available reports do not describe subsequent judicial decisions or whether the allegations were confirmed in court. No official Carabinieri statement or court document was included in the acquired reporting for independent verification.

Readers following the case should therefore treat the drug-dealing allegation as reported by the two news outlets, pending any further judicial account.
