Police arrested 18 suspected members of the gang, which reportedly invested almost €3m (£2.65m) to start up and manage an illegal factory in the southern Spanish city of Granada.
Their factory was staffed by workers from Ukraine and Bulgaria who were forced to work 12-plus hours a day in “very unhealthy” conditions, said law enforcement officers.
