ROTA (Agencies/Photo: National Police) A drug ring operating at the US Naval Base in Rota was dismantled early yesterday in an operation by the National Police. The eight people arrested were mostly military personnel, or who had once been stationed there. Of the eight, six were Colombian, and two, Spanish. The arrests came about as the result of an investigation that began five months ago after the National Police received information that drugs were being sold on the base, but the gang was headquartered outside. Aside from the arrests, a large quantity of very pure cocaine was confiscated, along with the material used to weigh it, arms and €8,000 in cash, among other things (photo).
