POLICE INSPECTORS ASK FOR TRANSFER

Two police inspectors who have been playing an important role in 'Operación Malaya' have asked to be transferred, reportedly because of lack of support from the General Police Department for the work they are carrying out in the investigation into massive corruption at Marbella Town Hall. Both officers are from one of the teams in the Money Laundering section of the Udyco squad on the Costa del Sol, and it is believed that they will be transferred to El Palo district of Málaga in the near future. They are said to be highly experienced and professional police officers, and their department has been responsible for investigating 'Operación Ballena Blanca' as well as the now famous 'Operación Malaya' which led to the dissolution of the former Marbella council and over 100 arrests so far. Their departure from the investigation comes before one of the most intriguing puzzles has been solved: the identity of an alleged 'mole' inside the police force who kept Juan Antonio Roca, who is suspected of being the brain behind the corruption, informed.
