Spanish police seized nearly 3,000 litres of faux olive oil which might have been bought for €20,500 (£17,313) from Huelva, newly-released video exhibits.

Guardia Civil officers shared footage of the operation from February, displaying officers unpacking bins containing containers of the liquid.

Authorities stated they intercepted a automobile from Portugal that was transporting giant portions of oils, supposedly from olive oil, and adhesive labels to re-label the containers with no right documentation to hint its origin of manufacturing.

The oil was discovered to be lampante oil, sunflower oil, and unclassified oil, which didn’t match the traits described on the seized labels.

Six persons are below investigation, police stated.
