A major investigation in Spain revealed a network of Romanians exploiting fellow countrymen working in agriculture. Victims labored without contracts and received minimal pay. The Provincial Court of Valladolid will judge four members of the Romanian clan accused of abusive labor practices. Prosecutors seek a total of 45 years in prison for the defendants, including 36 years for the alleged leader, Vasile C.U. Workers were forced to work long hours without breaks and were not registered for social security. The investigation began in 2019, leading to the seizure of cash and vehicles purchased with exploited workers' money. Prosecutors also uncovered money laundering activities linked to the network.
