Carlos Prieto

Carlos Prieto is the Government Delegate in Catalonia, Spain. He is currently newsworthy due to his involvement in announcing a major confiscation of counterfeit tobacco in Granollers. According to Prieto, the Civil Guard seized 10 tons of falsified tobacco from an illegal factory, describing it as one of the largest confiscations of its kind in Spanish history. The operation targeted a group operating an illegal factory where 11 people lived and worked. The Civil Guard is now investigating potential labor exploitation within the factory. While other news events occurred, such as the commemoration of the Germanwings plane crash anniversary and the 25th anniversary of El Confidencial, Prieto's name is specifically linked to the tobacco confiscation case.
