A doctor in Algeciras has been arrested on charges of fraud and falsification of documents after allegedly writing out prescriptions for friends and family using the names of patients at the Hospital Punta Europa.
An investigation began after a discrepancy was noticed in the issuance of prescriptions at the hospital and this led to the discovery of prescriptions being filled at various pharmacies in Málaga province by non-hospital patients. Some of the prescriptions were for anabolic steroids.
