The mafia was coordinating all the transportation of the cocaine, since his departure in Colombia until his custody and subsequent sale to customers, in particular, of the Costa del Sol. It was from one of the links of this complex structure as the agents discovered the parallel activity that developed some of the workers of the Port of Algeciras. In July, the researchers had knowledge that two stevedores entered in one of the restricted areas of goods, broke the seal of a container and picked up three backpacks inside.

He was a member of the band who was in charge of selecting those stevedores willing to corrupt in order to participate in a few ports where it was necessary to have guaranteed access to a port area that has restricted access. In the last step of the group were the carriers that were responsible for take the drug and keeping it in a series of child-care facilities, which went out to end customers of Malaga.

Thanks to these investigations, agents have managed to prove that the band were able to introduce in Spain for at least 170 kilos of cocaine. Such a volume made it possible to good part of the 21 involved a high level of life that has been accredited with the 150,000 euros in cash have been seized.
