European cops dismantle 5-country drug ring

authorities raid several residences across five countries dismantling an international drug trafficking operation and resulting in 16 arrests. The arrests were done during an international operation between the Spanish National Police, the Belgian and Dutch authorities and coordinated by Eurojust. Eurojust is a European Union agency which deals with judicial cooperation among agencies in member states. The suspects are all aged between 25 and 68 but have not been named. Authorities suspect the group smuggled cocaine through Spanish ports by camouflaging it in fruit containers which were then distributed to other European countries, mainly Holland. The Spanish National Police conducted 17 raids around the Malaga and Alicante provinces located in the southern autonomous community of Andalusia which lead to eight of the arrests on 16th September (Wednesday). The video shows the moment cops conduct the raids and display several luxury items such as cars, jewellery and decorative items after entering the large homes.
