Policía Nacional has, in a joint operation with the Tax Agency (Agencia Tributaria), borded a sailing boat on 13 June 2021 and arrested its crew members for trafficking of drugs. These criminals belong to the same criminal organization led by a former member of the British Royal Navy who was among those 10 people being arrested in May 2021.
The boarded sailing boat, "Windwhisper", was loaded with nearly 1,000 kilograms of cocaine and it had been sailed from the Caribbean Sea.
At the same time that the boarding was being prepared, four more people were arrested in the Campo de Gibraltar area and in the province of Málaga related to the same criminal organization dedicated to international trafficking of cocaine and hashish.
In total 17 members of this criminal gang have now been detained.
