The National Police have arrested 28 people in a wide-ranging operation against drug trafficking carried out in Valencia. Among those arrested is the administrator of a nightlife establishment in the city, according to reporting by ABC.

The police operation has resulted in the apprehension of almost three dozen individuals involved. The authorities have focused on the owner of the entertainment venue, whose links to the illicit sale of narcotics are under investigation.

Agents deployed a large-scale operation at various points throughout the Valencia metropolitan area. The raid is part of the continued efforts by law enforcement to dismantle drug distribution networks operating in entertainment venues.

For the moment, investigators are pursuing various lines of enquiry to determine the exact extent of the dismantled organisation and whether there are connections with other criminal cells active in the area.
