Police have found 5,000 kilos of hashish in an as yet un-named industrial estate in San Vicente del Raspeig. It’s thought a warehouse there was being used to store the drug ahead of its distribution in the U.K where it would have a market value of about 6.5 million €.Three arrests, two Britons and a Romanian, have been made in the operation so far, and more have not been ruled out in what is the second most important drugs haul in the province this year.
The nearly 5,000 kilos was recovered on Saturday night and those arrested were held on Saturday night in the cells of the main police station in Alicante.
Yesterday morning police statements were taken, and today the three will declare before the judge who will decide between prison on remand or bail.
