THE ‘largest organised crime group in eastern Spain’ has been brought down following a seven-nation investigation that saw 81 arrests, the seizure of 4,000kg of cocaine and 800 bank accounts frozen. ‘Operation Beautiful’, coordinated by Spain but involving law enforcement authorities from Colombia, France, Portugal, Romania, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and supported by Europol, dismantled the ‘violent gang’ in a string of sting operations last week.
