SPANISH police said on Saturday (November 5) they seized 32 tonnes of packaged marijuana with a street value of at least 64 million euros ($63.74 million), which they said was the largest amount ever found in Spain or internationally.

The gang dried the marijuana plants, packaged them and sent them to parts of Spain, Switzerland, Holland, Germany and Belgium.

Police raided a series of farms and production plants across Spain in an operation called Gardens.

"It was equivalent to approximately 1.1 million plants," Spain's Civil Guard said in a statement.

Police arrested nine men and 11 women, who were aged between 20 and 59. None of them were named.
