The Mossos d’Esquadra, the Catalan police, and the National Police of Spain have arrested more than fifty people in a joint operation in Catalonia and Asturias in which they have dismantled a criminal organisation dedicated to international drug trafficking, especially marijuana, and money laundering.
As reported by both police forces, it is a group of Chinese origin, which in Spain had ramifications at least in Barcelona, in its metropolitan area and in the Camp de Tarragona, as well as in Asturias, where together 23 searches have been carried out throughout the morning on Wednesday.
In the police operation, with an extensive device that began early this morning, the Mossos and the National Police have arrested more than 50 people, according to sources.
