TWO youths aged 18 died last Sunday after taking drugs at a rave on the outskirts of Madrid.

A couple walking in La Aldehuela area in Perales del Rio, Getafe, found the body of one of the youths close to a river and called the emergency services. The other was found just metres away. Neither body showed signs of violence.

Another youth, aged 20, was taken to hospital in a serious condition, after having taken large quantities of drugs. However, he told the police that he suspected his drink had been spiked.

Getafe Town Hall announced that measures would be taken to stop the raves which are being carried out in the area.
