The criminals took the entire safe and left a message from 'La Fiel'. Authorities are investigating an internal 'informant'

The judicial investigation into the commando-style assault on the Talleres stadium is advancing along the solid lead of an alleged internal disloyalty. The justice system is looking for the gang that stole loot worth 97 million pesos in cash on February 1. The incident took place with millimetric precision while the team was playing against Platense.
Prosecutor Ernesto De Aragón is working on the main hypothesis of a planned "inside job" with privileged information. The criminals had sensitive data about the exact location of the money and the monitoring system. They knew where the store's takings were and they knew the movements of the security staff.
The group entered through gate 3 of the Francisco Cabasés stadium with total operational impunity and knowledge of the terrain. They subdued the private security guard through threats and went straight to the administrative offices. Since they couldn't open the safe on-site, they loaded it in its entirety into a pickup truck.

Cleared zone and mafia-style message
A disturbing detail was the graffiti that the assailants left before escaping via Tomás Lawson Street. They wrote "La Fiel forever" on a side wall of the grounds before fleeing with the money. Investigators are analyzing whether it is a real signature of the barra brava or a distraction maneuver.
The precision of the hit exposes the vulnerability of security in the face of the advance of organized crime. The thieves knew the layout of the offices and the rotating schedules of the security personnel. Everything indicates that there was an "informant" who facilitated the logistics to carry out the multimillion-peso robbery.

Justice and security under scrutiny
The club president, Andrés Fassi, confirmed his intention to become a plaintiff in the criminal case. The institution is seeking to push the investigation forward to clarify the direct attack on the club's assets. The leadership intends for the full weight of the law to fall on the material and intellectual perpetrators.
The Robbery and Theft Department is analyzing the security cameras to track the vehicle used in the crime. The assault wasn't a random act, but an operation carried out with prior criminal intelligence. The justice system must determine who betrayed the club's institutional trust in order to hand over the loot.
