Crime boss Steven Lyons to challenge Spain extradition bid

Electronic devices, large amounts of cash, company documents, high-end watches and cryptocurrency wallets were seized as part of the investigation.

This follows a three-year probe in collaboration with Police Scotland.

The statement said the Lyons gang has developed a criminal network in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, with “a complex money laundering network based on shell companies and international financial transactions, managing millions of euros derived from drug trafficking.”

It added: “Its ability to operate simultaneously in several countries – including Spain, the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey – and to forge alliances with other major criminal networks, solidified the clan’s position as one of the most significant players in contemporary European organised crime.”
