Two arrested as police seize 885 g of hashish from an Algeciras sales flat
Policía Nacional officers searched a flat in Algeciras that they had watched because of a constant stream of short visits, arrested its two residents and seized 885 grams of hashish, including slabs and 91 doses packed for sale. Officers also found 386 grams of cocaine, which is outside this tracker's cannabis figures.
Policía Nacional officers arrested two people, the residents of a flat in
Algeciras, as suspected perpetrators of a crime against public health.[1][2][3][4][5]Investigators began watching the flat after a constant stream of visitors who
stayed only a few minutes, a pattern police said matched a small-scale drug
sales point.[6][3][4]
The operation ended with the entry and search of the flat, carried out as part
of police operations against drug trafficking in the Campo de Gibraltar.[1]Inside, officers found 386 grams of cocaine and 885 grams of hashish, the
hashish in formats including slabs and bellotas, egg-shaped lumps.[6][2][3][4][5]Police
described the seized substances as more than 1.2 kilos of drugs, both in
sizeable quantities and in individual doses prepared for sale.[1]
Police said the flat was used to distribute and sell drugs on a small scale,
within operations intended to reduce drug dealing in the Campo de Gibraltar area
around the Bay of Algeciras.[7]
Police also found 91 doses of hashish in small bags prepared for sale.[2][3][5]
Both detainees were the residents of the flat that was searched.[4]

The reports give no date for the search; 9 November 2026 is the publication date of all three accounts and is used as the incident date.
The hashish weight (885 g) is the police figure, with no laboratory confirmation reported.
No exact address, neighbourhood or street for the flat was published, so the place is given at the town level.
The two detainees are not named; their ages, nationalities, whether they were brought before a court and any court outcome are not reported.
The other drugs (the 1.2 kilos, which include the 386 grams of cocaine) are a combined figure that cannot be divided into cannabis and non-cannabis parts, so only the separately stated hashish weight is recorded.
The reports reproduce a Policía Nacional de Cádiz statement; the outlets' accounts are near-identical and cite no independent reporting.
Left out, as its quotation was not found in 8Directo: They also found 91 doses of hashish packed in small bags ready for sale.
Cadena SER gives no date for the search either; 9 November 2026 is the publication date used for the incident.
