She is married to a 38 year old Spaniard who was also arrested for distributing cocaine.
A 26 year old British woman is among a group of three people who have been arrested by the National Police in Torrevieja for drug trafficking. Three kilos of cocaine was recovered in the operation which saw the searching of a house and a restaurant on the ‘Ciudad Quesada’ urbanisation.

Those arrested are thought to have been mixing the drug with caffeine, before distributing it locally. It’s thought they purchased the drug, which is of Colombian origin, here in Spain.

They have been named as 38 year old Spaniard, C.A.C.Z, his 26 year old British wife, J.T.O., and a 48 year old Spaniard M.P.R.
1630 € in cash, a starting pistol, precision balances and other drug related equipment was found.

None of the three has a previous record, and the case is now in the hands of Instruction Court One in Torrevieja.
