Four young men have been arrested in the capital after being accused by police of violently stealing a significant amount of money from an apartment rented by several tourists from Turkey.

"The services of the Police Commissariat No. 4, after receiving a report of the theft of a sum of money and 2 mobile phones in an apartment rented by 3 Turkish citizens, have organized the police operation codenamed "Brothers", with the aim of identifying and arresting the suspected perpetrators of the theft. As a result of the operation, the following citizens were arrested: -SZ, 20 years old and OZ, 18 years old (brothers); Xh. S., 20 years old and SS, 18 years old (brothers). These citizens, in collaboration with each other, have violently stolen a sum of money and 2 mobile phones, in the apartment rented by 3 Turkish citizens", the police announce.

The Blue Uniforms have also handcuffed one of the Turkish girls who were in the apartment. This is because the 24-year-old was in possession of a quantity of the narcotic substance cannabis. Meanwhile, her two friends have been criminally prosecuted for "failure to report a crime".

"Following the actions, the arrest of Turkish citizen MM, 24 years old, was carried out, after during the search of the rented apartment, a quantity of the narcotic substance cannabis was found and seized," the police informs.

The police also seized 3,350 euros, narcotics, a cold weapon and the vehicle used during the theft by the four boys, as well as 4 cell phones. (A2 Televizion)
