A criminal organization that “emptied” apartments in areas of Attica with a financial benefit of more than 230,000 euros was dismantled by Attica security.
In the video document secured by skai.gr and it is from a security camera of an apartment in Glyfada that one of the six burglars of the organization is captured in action.

The burglar with quick hasty movements, after entering the apartment by breaking the balcony door, enters the bedroom which he does literally wing and wing.
Six gold rings and personal items with a monetary value of 3000 euros were the loot from this burglary in a 1st floor apartment in Glyfada.

How the criminal organization operated

The police investigation revealed that the criminal organization had been operating since May 2022, while in terms of their methodology, the burglars operated in the afternoon or evening hours. After breaking windows or balcony doors that were not in plain sight, they entered the apartments and literally ransacked them until they found valuables or money which, according to the case filed against them, were channeled to pawnshops.

According to ELAS, the members of the criminal group were taking strong self-protection measures. In several cases they used protective gloves and masks thus minimizing the chances of leaving biological material or their footprints in the area.

In addition, they parked their business vehicle several meters away from the target house, thus avoiding direct connection with it, in case they were noticed by neighbors and the Police Authorities were notified.

After “were emptying” the apartment they had set their eyes on, the stolen goods were taken by their accomplice who rode a motorcycle, so that in case something “went wrong”, their loot would be safe.
Attica security arrested 6 members of the organization and identified three more who are wanted, while 19 cases of theft and 1 attempt were investigated.
