MADRID (AP) — Officials say police have arrested four people and busted a gang suspected of smuggling marijuana buds and other drugs from southern Spain into Britain.
The investigation was triggered in January when evidence emerged that an organization was purchasing large quantities of hashish in Spain and transporting it for sale in Britain. www.drugfreeworld.org
Investigators learned that the drugs were being acquired in the provinces of Granada and Murcia, where traffickers vacuum-packed them and hid them in trucks bound for England. www.drugs.ie
Police said in a statement Sunday they arrested two Spaniards and two Britons as they transferred buds from Granada to Murcia, then they raided a drug- and equipment-filled house in hills near the towns of Abaran and Ricote.
