Two women arrested for spiking tourists' drinks to rob them in Marbella

National Police officers arrested two women aged 24 and 27 in the Valencian town of Chiva and in Benidorm in Alicante at the end of last week, on suspicion of spiking tourists’ drinks and robbing them in Puerto Banús.

Two Dutch tourists awoke with hangovers at their Marbella holiday apartment, to which they had invited two women they had met the night before while out partying in April. It later emerged that the women had spiked the tourists’ drinks with a view to robbing them.
