Tania Gomez was arrested after a nearly four-year run, becoming one of the most wanted women in Europe for her links to drug trafficking.
The world's "sexiest fugitive" was captured in Lanzarote, Spain, after escaping from Sweden in 2021. Gomez, 32, known as the "cocaine queen" in Europe, is suspected of having had ties to an organized crime group in Stockholm, where she transported and distributed drugs and illegal money.

Before her criminal connections became known, Gomez was an Instagram influencer and owner of an animal rescue organization, HundGärin, which claimed to help homeless dogs.
However, according to Europol, she was also part of a network that trafficked animals abroad.
Gomez is also suspected of being involved in an operation uncovered by Swedish police in the summer of 2020, where around one million euros in cash were found.

She is also accused of money laundering and involvement in illegal drug trafficking and money laundering activities in Stockholm, which is suspected of having served as a hub for mafia groups.
She was also involved in the distribution of cocaine, and authorities say she received 10 kilograms of cocaine in May 2020.
After the raid in 2020, Gomez escaped and is suspected of having gone to Spain, where her father also lived. She was caught in the town of Tias, on the island of Lanzarote, after a joint operation by Spanish and Swedish police.

Gomez has been arrested and is awaiting extradition to Sweden, where she could face up to 14 years in prison for drug trafficking and money laundering.
