They had grabbed more than 1 million cinematographically. euros – 6 people were arrested – Among them the driver of the money delivery van who claimed to be the victim of the robbers
They were arrested money order robbers in Lavrio last September.
According to information, it is about 6 people, of Greek origin, among them the driver of the money shipment who declared himself a victim of the robbers, who were taken as accused to the Property Crimes Department of the Directorate for Combating Organized Crime. Also, according to the same sources, in house searches that were carried out, approximately 200 thousand euros were found from the stolen goods.
How did the mammoth heist happen?
It is recalled that the robbery took place at noon on Thursday, September 26 in Lavrio. The four perpetrators acted in a cinematic manner, right next to the entrance of a toy chain store and grabbed money in excess of one million euros.
The money transfer vehicle had taken a lot of money from various cooperating businesses in the wider area of Lavrio. This particular store was the last one. It appears that the perpetrators were aware of this information. One cashier was inside the store and had brought some bags of money, while the second, as he should have been, was inside the car.
At first the robbers, who showed up in a green car, threw paint on the vehicle, specifically a smoky color and then threw paint on the windshield. They wore hoods, medical masks and common clothing, light in color.
There is one more interesting element in the case. They left a box, which they claimed was an explosive device, threatening the employee that with the explosion they would be able to break the window of the vehicle.
All four tires of the vehicle were punctured with knives. With the simple Kalashnikov they forced the employee out of the van. The employee could not stay inside the vehicle because it was not armored. One of the perpetrators grabbed at least 15 bags with 1.5 million. euro.
Initial reports from officials indicated that they had not had time to put the money in the coloring bags, which when the money is removed with an explosion destroy it. Thus, the task of the perpetrators was particularly easy.
The company, according to police sources, operated under another name in the past and had received several robberies during remittances.
In the video obtained by SKAI, the robbers’ vehicle can be seen, a green car. It is one of two videos that the police had in their possession, and were examining in the search for the perpetrators.
