A Spanish police chief provided services to drug traffickers: 20 million euros were found hidden in the walls of his house.
A high-ranking Spanish police officer hid 20 million euros in his home’s walls… This case began with a record drug seizure that has since unfolded into a massive corruption scandal. Last week, thirteen tons of cocaine—a historic record in Spain—were seized in a container of bananas.
Following this, investigators made around fifteen arrests, including that of a high-ranking police officer: the head of the economic and financial crimes unit at the Madrid police headquarters. A specialist in money laundering, known for his expertise by his colleagues. But they never imagined the extent of his involvement: in his office, they discovered 1 million euros of unknown origin.
