The five arrested are attributed the alleged authorship of the crime of robbery with force
So far, researchers have clarified a fortnight of robberies
During the development of the operation have recovered stolen effects that have already been returned to their rightful owners
The Civil Guard of the Region of Murcia, in the framework of the operation 'LA BRUJILLA', has arrested the five members of a criminal group dedicated to the commission of robberies with force in rural houses of Cieza.
Agents specializing in prevention of citizen security of the Benemérita began the operation last April, when they found that several robberies had been committed with force in rural homes in the municipal area of ​​Cieza, facts that had generated some social alarm in the population.
The first steps of the operation were carried out in the homes that were the object of theft in order to gather all the possible indications about their authors and the illicit way of acting.
The stolen houses are located in the areas of El Argaz, La Isla and La Brujilla, along the riverside promenade where the Segura River runs through Cieza, an area that can be easily accessed by car and foot by its proximity to the urban helmet.
As a result of the first technical-ocular inspections carried out, it was possible to determine, by the way of access to the farms, the damages caused, the time slot and the stolen effects, which were the same authors in all the robberies.
In addition to continuing the investigation to clarify the facts and locate their perpetrators, the Civil Guard reinforced the preventive services of citizen security around the area to avoid the commission of more criminal acts.
After the first facts denounced, new crimes of similar characteristics are committed again.
On this occasion the same modus operandi is repeated, but thanks to the device deployed by the Civil Guard, in this case the operational surveillance and checkpoints performed by the service patrols, it was found that the authors access the sites on foot or by bicycle from the riverside promenade.
A few weeks after starting the operation, the officers practiced the first arrest.
It was a neighbor of the locality with a wide criminal record and presumably related to the materialization of the robberies investigated.
The first arrest and the intensification of the surveillance and control device in the area did not prevent the remaining members of the criminal group from continuing with their illicit activity, since they subsequently committed new criminal acts in the same area and motivated them to act as well. in places bordering on the previous ones, known as La Perdiguera, Maripinar, La Hoya de los Álamos and Las Cuartanas.
The device deployed within the operation has allowed to identify the remaining members of the criminal group and thus establish the corresponding search devices.
During the last few days, the Civil Guard arrested one of the suspects in flagrante delicto, also with a long criminal history, when he was inside an estate located in El Argaz.
The search device culminated last Friday, May 25, when the agents, after the commission of two new robberies in the Maripinar site, located and detained the three remaining suspects who were also confiscated numerous tools and objects stolen from the country houses.
Operation 'LA BRUJILLA' has ended with the dismantling of criminal group that was engaged in committing robberies with force in country homes, getting to clarify, so far, a fortnight of criminal acts.
The investigation shows that those arrested now made a first trip by bicycle or on foot in the area to plan the robberies that, in later days, materialized.
They hid the objects stolen by the surroundings in case they were intercepted to avoid their connection with the criminal acts.
The next day or after a few days they recovered these objects, having already managed their immediate sale.
The detainees, the recovered effects and the diligences instructed have been put at the disposition of the Court of Instruction of Cieza and of the Office of the Prosecutor for Minors of Murcia.
