The arrest of two young men, aged 19 and 20 years old, was made by officers of the IS Team on Sunday 5 April, following a chase that started from Perama and ended in the area of Korydallos.
According to the police, the two accused approached a 69-year-old man in Perama, pretending to be interested buyers of a vehicle he had posted for sale. Then, using violence, they removed his neck chain and fled in a vehicle.
Instantly mobilized policemen of the IS Team, who, after careful searches, located the perpetrators moving in the area of Nice and called them for control. The accused did not comply by developing speed, resulting in a chase.
Finally, the vehicle was stopped at Korydallos and the two youths were arrested. During a check inside the car, the stolen chain was found carefully hidden, which was seized and returned to the victim.
The arrested persons were taken to the competent public prosecutor. A case file was formed against them by the Department of Prosecution and Investigation of Crimes of Perama, on a case-by-case basis for robbery, complicity in robbery, disobedience and dangerous driving, according to APA-MPA.
