Authorities have identified a second robber belonging to the so-called "Rolex Gang", who is currently on the run. According to a source from the investigation heard by SIC, this individual reportedly arrived in Lisbon a few days ago.

The suspect belongs to a criminal group originating from South America. The same source revealed that the robber is being sought with the collaboration of foreign police forces.

Authorities suspect the individual may have already left Portugal, which hinders efforts to proceed with his arrest. Investigations continue under Portuguese authorities, in coordination with international police services.
