Kosovo is one of the transit roads where many narcotic substances/drugs are transported. The narcotics are transported through Kosovo to the EU countries. Justice in Kosovo team has cooperated with Kosovo Police for 9 months in order to see the activities of the Kosovo Police anti- drug unit.
The Kosovo Police data show that heroin trafficking starts in Afghanistan, then continue through Turkey and Kosovo and it ends up in EU countries, whereas marihuana is brought from Albania to Kosovo and then continues to EU countries.
The analysis of Kosovo Police show that a portion of drugs remains in Kosovo and it is consumed by the domestic (Kosovo) drug users.
