Police raid a Ceuta home, jail 2 over suspected cocaine sales
A UDYCO operation followed investigations starting in 2024 and led to preventive prison orders.
National Police, via the UDYCO unit, raided a home in Ceuta where they suspected cocaine was being sold in small quantities.
The operation began after investigations that started in 2024. Police carried out an entry and search at the property, located near the Regulares barracks, on Thursday at around 6am.
During the raid, officers arrested a man and a woman. They also found cocaine inside the home, but the quantity was not officially specified.
Police moved quickly during the operation to prevent the suspects from getting rid of the drugs. Officers said the sales were coordinated from the residence using a judicial order.
After the arrests, the pair were taken to police custody until they were presented to the duty court. On Saturday, a judicial decision ordered both into preventive prison, and they were transferred to Mendizábal prison.
The wider investigation involving the UDYCO unit, part of broader inquiries that began in 2024, is continuing. The Police have not provided further details about the case.
