Raid in Neugasshof: police arrive with rammbock and arrest Milieubeizer Roland Gisler and 14 other people

Zurich city police conducted a large-scale raid at a bar in district 5, using heavy equipment such as a ramming vehicle. Officers searched the premises, seizing drugs, cash, and weapons with ammunition. The operation resulted in the arrest of Roland Gisler, a known figure associated with the Milieubezirke, along with 14 other individuals. This action highlights ongoing efforts by law enforcement to combat organized crime and illegal activities within the region.

Zürich police arrested 15 individuals during a raid at the Neugasshof bar in the city’s fifth district late Wednesday evening. Authorities suspect large-scale drug trafficking. The arrests took place during a search operation at the Neugasshof, a well-known establishment in Zurich's Langstrasse area. According to the Zurich prosecutor’s office, 12 men and three women aged between 25 and 71 were detained. They came from Switzerland, Serbia, Hungary, Croatia, and Italy. Police seized several hundred grams of cocaine, multiple kilograms of cannabis products, a significant amount of cash, a handgun with ammunition, and electronic evidence. One person was released after questioning, while 14 remain in custody. The operation is unrelated to the case of a missing man from the criminal underworld featured in a recent episode of the ZDF TV show Aktenzeichen XY. That case involves a 46-year-old Montenegrin who disappeared in July 2023 after entering a car near the Neugasshof. The driver left Switzerland in August 2023 and is believed to be in Turkey. Police used heavy equipment during the raid, breaking into floors and seizing drugs, money, and weapons. Among those arrested was Roland Gisler, a known figure in the criminal milieu.
