All are up before Murcia’s Provincial Court this week, with the two Guardia officers allegedly having been bribed into revealing sensitive operational data.

The Customs Surveillance Service recovered a mountain of 79 bales of the drug worth more than €3m, as it landed on a La Manga beach back in 2007.

Arrests followed in Cartagena and Cadiz soon after.

The cops face four years in jail, a fine of €30,000 and a ban from any public office for nine years.
