It contained 4.5 kilos of cannabis. After organising an operation, officers arrested the 29-year-old alleged recipient.

A second parcel, sent from Barcelona to Montuïri, was found on 21 August with eight kilos of cannabis buds inside. Officers arrested a 50-year-old Spanish man as its alleged recipient.

The final interception came last Monday. Guardia Civil officers found just over 12 kilos of vacuum-packed cannabis in the parcel and arrested the alleged recipient, a 73-year-old Spanish man.
