THIS is the moment two homes in Spain’s ‘narco town’ in Cadiz were raided by police.

Policia Nacional and Guardia Civil officers can be seen entering the properties in La Linea de la Concepcion.

Huge boxes containing cannabis are seized in the clip, which was shared by Spain’s interior minister Juan Ignacio Zoido on Saturday.

He said: “The @policia and the @guardiacivil, in a joint operation, have intervened 3,300 kilos of hashish hidden in two houses of La Línea de la Concepción and have arrested three people.

“The fight against drug trafficking continues to pay off.”
