This dataset is one of four and it refers to a group involved in cocaine trafficking in Spain. The data was retrieved from UCINET’s site and divided into individual networks as these existed at different points in time.

This is an undirected network with 25 nodes.
Abstract
These data refer to one of four illicit drug networks operating in Spain between 2007 and 2009. Operation ACERO (n=11) began in 2007 and involved a small family-based group. The group was composed mainly of members of the same family and was led by a female. They distributed cocaine in Madrid (Spain) that was provided to them by other groups based in a northwest region of the country, one of the most active areas in the provision of cocaine from the countries of origin. The group also had their own procedures to launder money. The information is listed as coming from police wiretapping and meetings registered by police investigations of the dark network. This data was reconstructed from Jimenez-Salinas Framis, A. ‘Illegal networks or criminal organizations: Power, roles and facilitators in four cocaine trafficking structures.’ in the Third Annual Illicit Networks Workshop, Montreal (2011).
