A large operation by the General Directorate of Criminal Investigations made it possible to dismantle a gang dedicated to assaulting app drivers. Eight people were arrested after a series of procedures carried out in different parts of the city of Córdoba. Among the seized items, a firearm was found that is believed to have been used in the incidents.
The procedures included more than 30 simultaneous raids concentrated in the Marqués de Sobremonte and Marqués Anexo neighborhoods. Actions were also carried out in nearby areas where the suspects are believed to have hidden stolen goods. During the course of police operations, the number of detainees increased from four to eight.
De la Recova and Del Molino streets were strategic points where objects related to the investigated crimes were found. The firearm, considered a key piece of evidence in the case, was also seized there. The organization used direct intimidation as its main tool of action against the drivers.
