POLICE FIND WAREHOUSE FULL OF NAZI MEMORABILI­A

-

Spanish police found a warehouse full of Nazi memorabili­a as they arrested three suspected leaders of an internatio­nal arms ring that sold guns to drug trafficker­s along the Costa del Sol, the Civil Guard force said on Tuesday. Following a year-long investigat­ion into a wave of gun crimes in the region, police raided three locations, recovering 160 firearms, nearly 10,000 bullets and 1.5 kg of explosives.

The warehouse where the weapons were found was stuffed with Nazi artifacts, including portraits of Adolf Hitler, German military uniforms and medals, police footage showed. Officers arrested two German men and a British man. They have been charged with arms traffickin­g, drugs traffickin­g and falsifying official documents.
