The suspects, aged 37, 52 and 53, were arrested on Thursday morning. Spanish police also carried out house searches.

Two people have already been detained in Sweden on suspicion of involvement in the fraud.

“As so many times before, our cooperation with the Spanish police has been excellent,” said Jonas Hemmar, deputy head of the international unit at the National Operations Department (Noa), in a press release.
