The operation has culminated in the dismantling of a criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking worldwide with the practice of 21 searches, the arrest of 17 people in the provinces of Cádiz, Málaga, Madrid, Barcelona and Toledo and the summons as investigated of 20 more people

The organization, known internationally as the “Farruku Clan”, was led by a dangerous group of Albanians, mostly settled in Spain, from where they had the capacity to operate anywhere in the world.
