In that time, six of the wanted men have been traced, arrested and are at various stages of the extradition and judicial process.

Hide Ad- Alex Male, 30, of Weston-super-Mare, is wanted by the South West Regional Organised Crime Unit for allegedly being a regional distributor of drugs across the south west of England, buying and selling drugs and managing other distributors who operated under his instruction using EncroChat. He is accused of conspiracy to supply cocaine and ketamine, money laundering and conspiracy to acquire a firearm. He has links to Spain, Portugal and Turkey.
Steve Reynolds, NCA’s regional head in Spain, said: “Spain is immensely popular with British people who live and take holidays there, but it is not a safe haven for criminals.
“The NCA’s International Crime Bureau and International Liaison Officers work with foreign law enforcement on behalf of UK police forces to track and arrest criminals wherever they are in the world.
“It’s usual for fugitives to continue to commit crime while on the run and these men will be known in criminal circles wherever they are and some will be trying to blend in to the large British communities for whom Spain is home.

“This partnership has been crucial to many of the successes we have had so far in tracking down fugitives from justice in the UK.”
