Parents of a two-year-old boy who tested positive for cocaine and ketamine have denounced the National Police for unlawful detention.

The National Police explain that they arrested the couple after the child tested positive for these two drugs in hospital

In Ibiza, a couple was arrested for suspected family abuse after their two-year-old son tested positive for cocaine and ketamine at Can Misses Hospital. The 31-year-old man and 27-year-old woman were detained following a hospital tip-off to the National Police. Initially brought in for abdominal pain and diagnosed with appendicitis, further investigation revealed the child’s exposure to drugs. As a result, custody was urgently withdrawn, and the case was escalated for investigation.

The couple’s defense lawyer, Daniel Molina, accused the police of illegal detention and misinformation, claiming the arrest account was false and that no consent was given for the child’s drug test. He also challenged the handling of the case by the police and medical authorities, denying any admission of habitual drug use by the parents and criticizing the immediate removal of the child’s custody. The complexity of the case is marked by conflicting reports and the involvement of multiple legal and medical entities.
