$6 Million in Drug Money Found Under Spanish Shack
MADRID — Spanish police say
narcotics investigators have found $6.3 million in cash buried in a
shanty town on the island of Mallorca.
The
National Police say authorities trying to break up a drug ring used
heavy construction equipment to rip up the concrete floor of a shack in
the city of Palma and found seven boxes with the euros, plus 17 pounds
of jewelry and gems and $8,000.
A police statement issued Tuesday said one of the boxes was buried under a dog house in a patio of the home.
The money and other valuables were unearthed during a series of raids that began Sept. 18 in a shanty town called Son Banya.
Police also seized undisclosed amounts of heroin, cocaine and marijuana.
