Overview
- Operation Grecofar resulted in 22 detentions across 13 Spanish provinces, with suspects facing alleged offenses against public health, organized crime and document falsification.
- The case began after a large seizure of psychotropic medicines at a Benavente parcel company led agents to identical private e‑prescriptions linked to one doctor whose identity was allegedly hacked.
- Investigators identified defined roles that included a principal forger, a collaborator who distributed prescriptions via messaging apps, economic mules to channel proceeds, and a Majadahonda resident who stockpiled and resold medicines on social media.
- Searches seized significant quantities of psychotropics, falsified prescriptions and medical stamps, plus computer equipment, with detainees and evidence presented to the Majadahonda court.
- Authorities report part of the supply was destined for mixtures such as karcubi, sometimes routed to North Africa, and the probe remains active with further arrests expected.
