Europe's biggest hashish dealer busted in Málaga

Police announced Tuesday that they arrested one of Europe's biggest hashish traffickers in Estepona, Málaga last August. The detention of the suspect, who was identified by his initials A. S. A., was part of an undercover operation targeting a large organization that was based in Huelva, in the south of Spain.

Authorities confiscated approximately 3,620 kilos of hashish and detained 12 other people.

The organization reportedly imported the drug from Morocco by speed boat, using a port in the small island of Cristina in Huelva as an entry point.

The 32-year-old leader of the organization has had an outstanding arrest warrant since last year.
