An operation to dismantle a Drug Trafficking Network between Vigo and Cangas officiated by the Civil Guard of Cangas is open.

In a recent judicial twist, several doctors of the Galician Health Service (Sergas) are being investigated after dismantling a criminal network dedicated to the illicit trafficking of medicines in Galicia. The Guardia Civil arrested one person in the early hours of Thursday morning and is investigating 16 others.

The operation, which has captured the attention of both the public and the health authorities, involves health professionals who allegedly participated in the illegal prescription of drugs for their subsequent sale on the black market.
The scandal has caused great alarm in the health sector and in the population in general by eroding trust, affecting the relationship between patients and doctors.
