Major drug raid in Hildesheim: Police search 14 objects!
On June 30, 2025, the police in Hildesheim carried out a large-scale raid that targeted a total of 14 objects. This operation was part of a targeted investigation against four suspected drug dealers from the region, aged between 25 and 28. According to information from Picture and Press portal The suspects have been under investigation since May 2024. The suspicion: A real trade in drugs, especially cocaine and cannabis, which has been going on since December 2023.
The background to the investigation turns out to be based on findings from previous proceedings. The public prosecutor's search warrants were issued by the district court at the request of the public prosecutor. Several kilograms of marijuana and 9mm cartridges were discovered during the raids. In addition, various data carriers were secured, the evaluation of which is currently still in progress.
A problem with far-reaching consequences
Drug crime is not only a relevant issue in Hildesheim. How Statista shows, the topic of drug offenses includes all criminal offenses under the Narcotics Act (BtMG) and is an area of organized crime and street crime that should not be underestimated. In 2023, over 347,000 drug offenses were registered in Germany, representing an increase of 2 percent compared to the previous year.
Not surprisingly, cannabis cases are the most common type of crime, with around 208,000 of these cases involving the use of marijuana. Although cannabis has been partially legalized since April 1, 2024, the number of cases remains high and shows that drug use and trafficking continue to make up a large part of crime statistics.
