Civil Guard agents have arrested, at least, two people in a search of a house, carried out from the first hour of this Wednesday morning in Arrecife. According to sources from the Civil Guard to La Voz, this is an operation against human trafficking that has been carried out simultaneously between Gran Canaria and Lanzarote.

In the framework of the registry have arrested so far a woman and a man. For the moment, the case remains under summary secrecy, so no further information has been released.

According to some witnesses, the agents would have entered the house about six in the morning and since then have taken out several boxes among which could be some computers, a camera and other objects. In addition, the agents have also seized a black motorcycle that they have taken in a trailer.

For the moment, this is the only registry that has been carried out in Lanzarote. To which are added those carried out in different properties of Gran Canaria.
