In the largest drug bust in Spanish History, Guardia Civil discovered €25 million worth of drugs including over 1 million ecstasy pills. Seized in the party island of Ibiza the Spanish police called it “the largest ecstasy drug bust in Spanish history”.
According to the head colonel of the Guardia Civil in the Balearics, Alejandro Hernández, the operation was a success after police seized 1,071,327 pills. It is honestly impressive how they stored all that.
Officers have arrested nine people in connection with the operation in both Malaga and Ibiza. They were said to be part of “one of the main criminal organizations involved in the introduction of synthetic drugs in Spain”. As well as the seizure of ecstasy pills, officers also confiscated over 700 kilograms of drugs including ketamine, pink cocaine, hashish, MDMA, and cannabis.
In 2022, there was another massive Ibiza drug bust that saw the seizure of 850,000 ecstasy pills. Those arrested were later released on a judicial error. Hernández hopes they are brought before courts and sent to prison this time. They have the evidence to convict them.
