The 24-year-old man, who was arrested in El Ejido, southern Spain,
charged Moroccan people 130 euros ($156) for each fake certificate
which allowed them to fly home from Spain, according to the
authorities. They said he had a second job running his own travel
business and selling plane tickets.
Spain's National Police added they had discovered seven cases of the
suspect selling false PCR test certificates and that the
investigation was ongoing.
