80 kilos of cocaine and two firearms seized in Valencia in national drug trafficking operation

Officers from the National Police have confiscated 80 kilograms of cocaine in Valencia, along with two pistols and 117 rounds of 9-millimetre ammunition. The seizure is part of a state-level investigation that dismantled a network dedicated to large-scale trafficking in illegal substances in April of last year.

According to information provided by the police force, this new phase corresponds to one of the investigative lines that remained active following the so-called Operation Diana, which concludes with this latest discovery. Officers recovered the drugs and weapons during proceedings linked to the criminal structure that was broken up months earlier.

The operation has made possible the recovery of substantial quantities of drugs and military material linked to the organisation. For the time being, the authorities have not provided information on possible recent arrests nor have they detailed the number of people involved in this final phase of the case.
