There are four drug traffickers, three pedophiles, a murderer, a violent thief and a pimp. They are all men and are classified as “highly dangerous”. They are the 10 most wanted criminals who could be hiding in Spain, although it cannot be ruled out that they are abroad. This Monday the State Police launched a campaign to ask for the collaboration of citizens to locate him. The measure is not new. In previous years, the Spanish police itself and the European Union Agency for Police Cooperation (Europol) have launched similar initiatives with good results. The latest, launched in July last year, has so far led to the arrest of six of the 10 criminals whose details had been released. The Police created an email address, losmasbuscados@policia.es, so that citizens who believe they have some information about any of them can pass it on to officers in a confidential manner. On this occasion, in addition to real photographs of the fugitives, the Police inserted images created using artificial intelligence to try to recreate any physical changes that the fugitives could have adopted to avoid capture.
