The police operation, which also involved searching nine properties, was carried out in the Catalonian towns of Tarragona, Reus and L'Hospitalet de Llobregat (Barcelona) and also in Estepona (Malaga).
Police sources say that the arrests on Tuesday were the start of the operation, as their investigation is continuing.
