They also had infrastructure in Dubai, the place from where all the activities of the economic network were directed. These included the shipment of mules from United Arab Emirates to Spain to transfer high-end watches. Some of the intervened pieces reach 800,000 euros. Through a laundering network with companies located in United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Ireland or Turkey, they would also have acquired luxury yachts.
