Drug trafficking: 33-year-old sentenced to more than seven years in prison

A 33-year-old woman named Medina H. has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison for leading an international drug trafficking operation involving large quantities of narcotics. The court in Bamberg convicted her for operating a drug network that sold over 8,500 items, including six kilograms of ketamine, 4,650 tabs of LSD, and approximately 26 kilograms of speed, generating around 730,000 euros in sales. Her partner, Julian S., received a three-year sentence for aiding and possessing controlled substances. The case marks the first time a woman in Germany has been convicted for leading an internationally active drug gang. Medina H. previously received a two-year suspended sentence in March 2024 but continued her activities. Police statistics show women account for only about ten to twelve percent of suspects in drug offenses, typically acting as couriers or packers.
