Spain's National Police force made the arrest of arrested 26 members of the Italian Camorra Mafia family, who stand accused of laundering mob money through front-companies based in Spain.
Officers arrested the suspects in raids in Madrid and confiscated cash, firearms and drug-related material, the statement issued by the anti-corruption prosecutors office read.
"Those detained belonged to various clans in the Camorra and operated in Spain in connection with criminal organisations in Italy," it said.
"They created a business network in Spain in order to introduce earnings from their criminal activity into Spanish financial channels."
Those arrested are due to appear before a judge for questioning, accused of drug-trafficking, membership of a criminal gang, money-laundering, forgery and tax fraud, the statement said.
