The head of UDEF in Madrid moved from UDYCO to the money laundering unit when he began collaborating with drug trafficking

According to sources close to the investigation, Sánchez Gil He asked to join the UDEF during his promotion in 2020 in the Drugs and Organized Crime Unit. (UDYCO Central), when it had already started provide information to clans who brought large containers of drugs into Spain via the country’s most important ports.

At UDYCO, he led the group dedicated to fight against drug trafficking on the Internet. During this stage, according to the researchers, was captured by criminal organizations who introduce cocaine into the national territory.

The Internal Affairs Unit (IAU) has been cautious in conducting this investigation in recent years. According to this newspaper, Since 2019, the Chief Inspector has been giving drug traffickers the advice they need to choose the most appropriate routes to bring large quantities of drugs into Spain.

According to sources close to the investigation, he received at least one million for each job for criminal organizations that have used their services. Already at UDEF Madrid, I had a more comfortable and discreet position, far from the center of interest of UDYCO Central. In addition, there he would obtain the necessary knowledge on the typical procedures of money laundering, one of the crimes for which he is currently under investigation in this case opened at the National Court, in which 14 other people are also held.

Among those arrested and imprisoned were his wife and his sister-in-law. The same sources report that the role of both of them in this plot was also very important, and that is why the judge decided to also send them to Estremera prison. The main inspector of the UDEF of Madrid and his wife are parents of two teenagers and, despite this, the judge did not hesitate to send them both to prison, which would reveal the strength of the evidence collected against them.

The wife of the main inspector was also an agent of the National Police. She was specifically assigned to the Alcalá de Henares Judicial Police Unit. Both therefore had access to the databases containing the most sensitive investigations carried out within the Corps. This access to such relevant information, underline the sources consulted, would be an important value from which the criminal organizations which hired them would benefit.

Open investigation

Another fundamental piece in laundering the money obtained by collaborating with drug clans was his sister-in-law. This woman, who was also sent to prison, is said to be acting as a so-called front man. This woman had at least 70 VTC licenses, who were those who served to cover the chief inspector, an expert in money laundering, since in practice he had to devote himself to its prosecution.

The discreet chief inspector has managed to confuse more than one for years, with his discreet and “indescribable” life, as defined by his colleagues. I had been driving the same Range Rover for 10 years. His house, a chalet in Villalbilla, near Alcalá de Henares, offered him the tranquility, austerity and reserve necessary to avoid attracting attention. His only known vice was the box he enjoyed at the Bernabéu. Nobody invited him. He went there because he paid for it.

Sánchez Gil hid at least 20 million euros within the walls of his house in Villalbilla. Internal Affairs investigators, as EL ESPAÑOL pointed out, are also examine possible companies allegedly associated with the police, as well as all the assets he may have in the form of cryptocurrencies.

The operation stems from the largest seizure in history in Spain, 13 tons of cocaine, the largest cache of cocaine ever intercepted in Spain. The fact that the judge is keeping the investigation secret is a bad sign for many members of the police. This, to various police commanders, would indicate that there could be other troops in Home Affairs’ crosshairs.
