Carabinieri Operation in Torre Santa Susanna: Arrests and Reports for Various Crimes

Within the services arranged by the Provincial Carabinieri Command of Brindisi, aimed at raising the level of crime prevention and ensuring a safety framework, the Carabinieri of the Francavilla Fontana Company carried out a extraordinary territorial control service. In this context, in Torre S. Susanna the Carabinieri of the local station have:

• Public establishment manager arrested in flagrante delicto for stealing electricity, since an inspection revealed that the business was equipped with an electrical system with a bypass through which electricity was illegally removed without being accounted for;
• two individuals reported at large who, taking advantage of a lady's distraction, they allegedly stole her car and then went to a neighbouring town to commit another theft at the expense of a pharmacy, from which they allegedly stole the proceeds; the stolen car was subsequently recovered by the military and returned to its owner;
• a man reported at large, which, through the technique of “emotional fraud”, he would have managed to deceive a woman with whom he would have started a fictitious romantic relationship, by having the victim hand over money via a bank transfer;
• a family of nine people held responsible were reported at large, following investigations, of numerous building irregularities concerning two properties found to be without permits.

This service falls within the activities to combat widespread crime that the Provincial Command of the Carabinieri of Brindisi is carrying out throughout the province.
