PJ arrests 15 million in assets linked to drug trafficking

Observador7 September 2026 at 17:59

The Judicial Police seized 15 million euros in assets as part of investigations related to drug trafficking. The seizures were carried out under the extended asset forfeiture regime, which allows authorities to confiscate assets suspected of being derived from criminal activities.

Some of the defendants involved in the case had 93 lands and houses seized by the authorities. This high number of real estate properties suggests a large-scale illegal activity network.

According to the investigation, some of the defendants allegedly profited more than 25 million euros from the crimes committed, related to drug trafficking. This value represents the alleged economic benefit obtained through the illegal activities.
