Who is Francisco Tejon, what part did he play in Clase A's Candela music video and why was he wanted by Spanish police?

Tejon – said to be the boss of a trafficking mob – taunted cops by writhing with girls in G-strings in a brothel near Gibraltar.

Who is Francisco Tejon?

Francisco Tejon – known as Isco like the Real Madrid footballer – was Spain's most wanted drugs kingpin until he handed himself in.

He and his younger brother Antonio are alleged to run the feared Los Castañitas cartel, a coalition of six clans based around Spain's "narco town" La Linea.

Police are said to fear the clans are adopting methods and structures like Pablo Escobar's ruthless Medellin cartel in Colombia.

They use speedboats to smuggle cannabis from Morocco through beaches and ports such as Algeciras, near Gibraltar.

At least 3,000 people are said to work for traffickers in the Campo de Gibraltar county, which surrounds the British overseas territory.

The brothers – who flaunt their £30m fortune with fast cars, yachts and hotels – fled to Morocco in 2016 but returned to border town La Linea earlier this year.

Detectives in Madrid are said to consider the pair the most important cannabis traffickers in Europe.

In February an attack on a hospital was linked to the Castañitas mob when 20 thugs stormed in to free an injured suspect who was under arrest.

Antonio, known as "El Castana", was arrested at his fortified mansion in June but older brother Isco, 39, continued to to evade police.

He had been on the run for two years when he broke cover in the raunchy YouTube video, released on October 2.

On October 17 it was reported he had handed himself into detectives through his lawyers.

He made a brief court appearance in La Linea and is in jail in Algeciras while cops investigate him for offences including drug trafficking and money laundering.

Antonio is awaiting trial in prison in Cordoba.

What did Francisco Tejon do in the Clase A video?

Cuban reggaeton singer Clase A released his latest music video for the track Candela on October 2.

It begins with him stepping out of a £200,000 Bentley Continental and announcing: "The king of charm is back."

Police sources confirmed the man with him, with close-cropped hair and wearing a garish T-shirt and sunglasses, was none other than fugitive narco king Isco Tejon.

The two men walk inside a luxurious villa which is filled with semi-naked women.

They drink champagne and vodka served with sparklers and join girls in skimpy bathing suits twerking in a hot tub.

Some of the women have the song title Candela painted on their buttocks.

Tejon is also seen dancing with one woman while others writhe on a bed.

The video was viewed more than 120,000 times in a few days.

Police are trying to find the villa where it was filmed, which boasts a swimming pool, bar and round beds stocked with fetish gear and sex toys.

Cops believe the house is in Guadacorte, between Gibraltar and Algeciras, and has been used as a brothel by members of Tejon's gang, according to reports.
