Portugal and Spain are conducting a joint investigation into the so-called "Rolex gang," a criminal group specialized in stealing luxury watches. The authorities of both countries are collaborating to identify and locate the suspects of this criminal organization.
The members of this gang are described as agile in theft and experts in escape, demonstrating a high level of preparation and professionalism in their operations. The group operates mainly in the most luxurious areas of Lisbon, where it seeks potential victims who own high-value watches.
The suspects adopt meticulous methods, carefully studying the routes of their victims before acting. When they identify a suitable target, they cause minor accidents as a way to distract and rob the victims, taking advantage of the moment of confusion to steal the luxury watches.
This joint investigation between Portugal and Spain reflects the cross-border dimension of organized crime, with the suspects moving between the two countries to escape police action and exploit the differences in judicial systems.
