Spanish authorities have destroyed a criminal organization run by Albanians, which was involved in international cocaine trafficking.
Police seized more than 820 kilograms of cocaine while 17 people were arrested, including the 'head' of the group, known for his contacts in Latin America, Europe and Dubai.
From the checks carried out, 226,500 euros in cash, three devices for detecting electronic GPS devices, and 13 vehicles were seized.
The operation was carried out for twelve months and three phases of execution were carried out. The investigation began in early 2023 after learning of the existence of a criminal organization run by Albanians living in Valencia, dedicated to large-scale cocaine trafficking and money laundering.
Initially, the leader of the organization was identified, who ran several companies based in Spain.
The investigators then also identified other members of the criminal network, which allowed them to specify the structure as well as the discovery of several luxury homes and industrial warehouses in different parts of Valencia that the organization had at its disposal.
They also located a car wash that was used by the criminal network as a center, as it was where the main meetings were held to distribute functions and give instructions to the members of the group.
The arrested are in custody, while a precautionary measure, 'prison arrest', has been given to them.
In addition, the investigators also arrested members of the organization in charge of providing the necessary logistics and infrastructure for the development of illegal activity, managing the lease contracts of various controlled properties.
