An Albanian "weed house" organization was dismantled by police in Spain a few days ago, while a villa converted into a hashish plantation for planting, drying, and preparation with the most sophisticated methods and modern equipment was also discovered.
The Guardia Civil (Civil Guard) has arrested 5 members (four men and one woman, aged between 24 and 37) of a criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking from Alhendín, in Granada.
It concerns a group of Albanians who had their own marijuana production and distribution center in a residential area of this metropolitan municipality, according to a press release issued by the authorities.
Five of the detainees are accused of belonging to a criminal organization, while three of them face charges of drug cultivation and production and electricity fraud; and two of them face a fourth charge of document forgery.
The arrests followed a search of a house in a residential area in Alhendín, which, since August, has caused numerous complaints from residents due to the strong smell of marijuana and unusual vehicle traffic approaching the house.
The villa was luxurious and equipped with a swimming pool and cellars suitable for cultivation.
Investigating officers found that the house was noisy with exhaust fans, a strong smell of marijuana, a dual power supply, and a constant flow of people and vehicles.
Two of the detainees were responsible for the care and maintenance of the domestic drug plantation and were arrested in a special operation supported by the Granada and Armillas Civil Security Unit, the Dog Service and the Pegaso Team.
At the same time, another group of agents carried out the arrests of the remaining members of the criminal organization in Granada.
During the search, officers seized 270 marijuana plants and 53 kilograms of packaged dried buds, 700 euros in cash, various false identification documents and several mobile phones.
A court in charge has ordered the imprisonment of two of the detainees and acquitted the rest on charges, while the investigation remains open and further arrests are not ruled out./Vizion+
