UK AND SPAIN BREAK UP EUROTUNNEL WEED SMUGGLING OPERATION
It is not the first time Spain and England’s police and secret services have collaborated to bring down drug kingpins and other crime bosses.
This week, after a year-long investigation, police from both countries broke up a smuggling operation that was using cars stolen from British drivers to transport huge shipments of weed from Spain to the UK via the Eurotunnel, or Chunnel as it’s known.
The gang’s modus operandi was to steal cars in Britain, drive them to the Barcelona area, where,Spanish police said, they would let them “cool off” for a few months.
Then the smugglers would through various destinations along Spain’s Mediterranean coast where they would stuff the cars with weed, “in special compartments,” then drive to France.
