西班牙警察与欧洲刑警组织(Europol)联合行动,成功摧毁了西地中海地区最大走私网络之一,共逮捕78人[1]。这一网络从西班牙和葡萄牙向阿尔及利亚走私合成毒品,返程则将移民和武器运送至西班牙及伊维萨岛,主要依靠幽灵快艇进行海上运输[1]。
此次行动在西班牙17个地点开展搜查,涉及阿利坎特、阿尔梅里亚、卡塔赫纳和穆尔西亚等地[1]。警方缴获了18艘快艇(价值约500万欧元)、多支枪支、超过25000欧元现金和15000粒MDMA药片[1]。据调查,该网络每次走私移民超过50人,每人收费12000欧元,移民走私业务的利润估计超过2400万欧元[1]。被逮捕的嫌疑人主要为阿尔及利亚籍,该网络还与法国、比利时、葡萄牙、意大利和波兰的犯罪团伙有关联[1]。
Spanish authorities working with Europol have dismantled one of the largest smuggling networks operating across the western Mediterranean region, resulting in the arrest of 78 people [1]. The operation targeted a criminal organization that smuggled synthetic drugs from Spain and Portugal to Algeria, while using high-speed boats to traffic migrants and weapons back into Spanish territory and the island of Ibiza [1].
The enforcement action yielded significant seizures, including 18 speedboats valued at approximately €5 million, more than €25,000 in cash, and 15,000 MDMA tablets [1]. Investigators identified the migrants' smuggling fee at €12,000 per person, with individual operations capable of transporting over 50 migrants at a time [1]. The estimated profits from migrant trafficking alone exceeded €24 million [1]. Searches were conducted across 17 locations in Spain, spanning the regions of Alicante, Almería, Cartagena, and Murcia [1]. The suspects were predominantly Algerian nationals with documented connections to criminal networks in France, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, and Poland [1].
