Guardia Civil officers arrested four people, two men and two women, in Navalmoral de la Mata as alleged members of a drug-trafficking criminal group.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The detainees were placed at the disposal of Court of Instance No. 1 in Navalmoral de la Mata, which will continue the judicial proceedings.[2][4][5]

Officers called the case Operation Telecoca 2026.[8][4] Three entries and searches of linked properties recovered 450 grams of hashish, the cannabis component recorded here.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The same searches also yielded 60 doses of cocaine, about 13,000 euros in cash and jewellery, mentioned only to explain the mixed case and excluded from cannabis figures.[1][2][4][5][7]

The investigation lasted about a year after agents learned of a possible drug sales point in the town, mainly for cocaine.[1][5] Investigators said the four had distinct, coordinated roles to facilitate distribution and sale of the drugs.[2] The drugs were allegedly sold from one investigated home used as a distribution point and through direct handovers to users.[1] One suspect allegedly used an electric scooter to move around the town to make the deliveries.[2][6] The exploitation phase took place on Friday 30 October with officers from different Guardia Civil units and specialities.[1][3][4][5][7]
