Some 623 persons were captured for these crimes, of which 477 are Panamanians and 146 foreigners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panama’s security levels<\/strong> seized a total of 119,212 drug packages in more than 180 operations throughout the country during 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These seizures represent a severe blow to criminal organizations and their finances causing them millions of losses, with the seizure of $27 million 209 thousand 278, said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The province with the highest seizure was Panama with 25 percent, followed by the province of Columbus with 21 % and Los Santos with 15 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last operations of 2023 took place mostly in different ports of the country from countries such as: Guatemala, Ecuador, Canada, Costa Rica, Colombia, Belgium, Peru and the United States.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 200 people have been convicted thanks to joint work with the Public<\/strong> Prosecutor’s Office<\/strong>, said the Minister of Security, Juan Manuel Pino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the current administration, 542.4 tons of illicit substances have been seized, 112 tons more than seized during the last two administrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2020, the Panamanian Security Stations seized 81,521 packages with drugs, in 2021 (128,774) and in 2022 closed with (128,666) packages of illicit substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panama is also advancing the construction of the drug incineration plant by 90 per cent and could be delivered during the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We will no longer have to burn drugs in the open sky, or send drugs to the United States to incinerate,” the head of Public Security said recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
