Guardia Civil has detained almost fifty people in an operation against drug trafficking in Malaga. Three criminal organizations dedicated to drug trafficking have been dismantled.
One of the detainees provided a parcel service using his uniform and a tagged vehicle to distribute the hidden drug in conventional packages, not raising suspicions and thus avoiding the perimeter closures established due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The issue of theft of electricity was brought up by representatives of property owners at the latest community meeting on 13 April 2019, but it was never mentioned in the Minutes (“Acta”). Photo evidence of illegal connection was presented too. The illegal connection to one of the apartments was in place from June 2018 until it was sold and refurbished in the spring of 2021.
It seems it was first in a letter on 25 December 2020 where the Secretary/Administrator mentioned theft of electricity to the property owners, by saying that there are no theft of electricity from neither any neighbours or from the community.
