Overview

  • Six individuals were arrested in Burjassot, Valencia, after a two-phase operation targeting a drug distribution point linked to local bars and the town center.
  • Police seized over 300 grams of cocaine, 135 grams of hashish, €870 in cash, and drug preparation tools during the Burjassot operation.
  • A separate raid in Denia, Alicante, uncovered an unregistered association serving as a front for drug sales, resulting in four arrests and the seizure of over 4 kilograms of marijuana, hashish, and cocaine.
  • The Denia premises were closed by judicial order following evidence of continuous drug sales, including hidden storage and consumption areas.
  • Authorities emphasize the importance of community reporting in identifying and dismantling small- and mid-scale drug trafficking networks.
