National Police officers from the eight Andalusian provinces have broken up an illegal betting network which was operating in bars on the Costa del Sol run by British citizens.

Around 30 people are implicated and they could face fines of between 30,000 and 300,000 euros.
Police discovered that illegal betting was taking place in seven bars: four in Benalmadena, two in Fuengirola and one in Torremolinos.
