- Officers from Vigo’s immigration and border brigade led the case with Asturias police, and Interpol took part in identifying the suspects.
- Investigators say the ring posted social ads for transport jobs in Spain and sold a paid “pack” with document handling, sham exam slots and supposed access to a job pool.
