The drug labs that the national police discovered produced heroin or cocaine or synthetic drugs such as MDMA, amphetamine and methamphetamine. Compared to 2022, 44 percent more drug labs were busted in the Netherlands last year. “An important explanation for the increased number of labs that have been dismantled can be found in the increased demand for drugs worldwide,” says Willem Woelders, portfolio holder for drugs. According to the police, a large part of the production is intended for export.
