Spain - The Drug Paradise

The most slaughtered phenomenon is in Candiz in Andalusia, where the population suffers from this type of trade, cigarette smuggling, and gangs.

Even on the banks of the neighboring city, La Linea, says DW, arrive every day hundreds of kilograms of cannabis and gomone from Morocco. There are days when several tons of drugs are transported.

<x0rahs of international drug trade from Latin America and cannabis in Morocco now have smuggling with Gibraltar”, local activists explain, according to which the number of police officers in the region is insufficient to withstand increased security pressure. So far the drug business developed in secret. But in March of this year, the situation in La Línea was roughed when weed smugglers attacked law enforcement forces that wanted to stop loading goods in a Land Rover vehicle.

When after a police action, a Moroccan drug boss was taken to the hospital, 30 masked and armed people pulled him out of the hospital. In Algeciras and La Linea about 35% of the population is unemployed. Thousands of people here have only drug and smuggling means of life, and in the last two decades, the situation has deteriorated.

Meanwhile, the magnificent beaches of La Linea are used only by locals. There are no hotels or apartments overlooking the sea, and none of the beach visitors lose their way through the city bars, where you see drug addicts in broad daylight
