In the La Toma neighborhood, in the west of Córdoba Capital, the police carried out 30 raids simultaneously. The operation made it possible to dismantle the gang known as "los levantaportones." Their activity had sown fear among local residents.
The criminals forced entry into homes and stole valuables within minutes. The method kept families in the area on edge. With the operations, at least 15 suspects were arrested.
In addition to home burglaries, the investigation links the gang to more serious crimes. Among them are bank ambushes and aggravated robberies. This is an organization with an extensive criminal network.

Key raids and seizures
During the procedures, firearms ready for use were seized. Alarm jammers and illegal drugs were also found. All of this reinforces the hypothesis of an organized criminal structure.
The operation was directly supervised by the Minister of Security, Juan Pablo Quinteros. His presence aimed to provide political and operational support to the police. According to official sources, further arrests are not ruled out.
Residents of the area expressed relief at the gang's downfall. They indicated that they had been living in a state of constant insecurity. Fear had forced them to reinforce alarms and hire private security.

Insecurity and demand for reforms
The magnitude of the organization exposes the shortcomings of the judicial system. Gangs with access to weapons and technology operate with impunity. Citizens are demanding harsher sentences and faster procedures.
Insecurity also affects urban development. In nearby cities such as Villa Allende, residents are resorting to closing off neighborhoods with gates. The measure reflects a lack of confidence in state protection.
With the raids, the police seek to demonstrate firmness in the face of crime. However, specialists agree that without substantial criminal justice reforms, the problem will persist. Citizens are demanding concrete results.
