The Civil Guard clarifies a dozen robberies in homes in the Murcia districts of Santa Cruz and El Raal (08/08/2018)

Three people have been arrested by the alleged perpetrator of at least ten crimes of robbery with force and belonging to a criminal organization

They acted with expertise, agility and speed to remove all kinds of objects, jewelry and money

The value of the stolen would be around 20,000 euros

The Civil Guard of the Region of Murcia, within the framework of the operation 'TOFUS', has dismantled a criminal organization composed of three men, two of them brothers who are attributed the alleged responsibility of, at least, 10 robbery crimes with force in houses of the murcianas districts of Santa Cruz and El Raal.

One of those arrested was informed of an arrest warrant issued by a Madrid court.

Agents of prevention of citizen security of the Benemérita began the investigation last March, to investigate several robberies with force committed in homes of the Murcia districts of Santa Cruz and El Raal, facts that had generated some social alarm.

The information obtained in the criminal scenarios allowed the Civil Guard to determine that after these events there was a group of people who acted in an organized and systematic way in the area.

The agents established a series of surveillance to identify the suspects, who accessed the houses by escalating and forcing the windows of the upper floors.

This work allowed to focus the research on two young people of 22 and 26 years, brothers and neighbors of Santa Cruz-Murcia, one of which, in addition, was being sought for his arrest by a court in Madrid.

From their surveillance it was concluded that they adopted rigorous security measures, such as changing habitually from the house where they stayed overnight, with the supposed intention of complicating their search.

Recently, and once obtained the necessary evidence, the Civil Guard has located and arrested the suspects as alleged perpetrators of at least 10 crimes of theft with force in the interior of a house.

The investigation has continued until identifying a third member of the male group, aged 43 and a resident of Santa Cruz-Murcia who, once located, has been arrested as the alleged perpetrator of the crimes investigated.

Apparently it is a criminal group, local, organized their criminal actions in such a way that, while the two most agile access to the houses by escalo, a third was kept in the vicinity to warn of the police presence or possible witnesses.

With this method they would have seized electronic devices, computers, shoes, tools, jewelry, watches and cash, for a value that would be around 20,000 euros.

The TOFUS operation has culminated with the dismantling of a criminal group, based in the hamlet of Murcia, Santa Cruz, whose three members have been arrested for allegedly responsible for at least 10 crimes of burglary inside homes.

The arrested men, of Spanish nationality, of 22, 26 and 43 years and the diligences instructed have been put at the disposal of the Court of Instruction number 7 of Murcia.
