Police in Spain have dismantled a criminal group accused of moving unaccompanied migrant girls from Gran Canaria to mainland Spain and France. The network allegedly recruited girls from care centres, promising jobs and providing false documents to facilitate their travel. Two victims were rescued, and five people, including one minor, were arrested across Gran Canaria.
