The Judiciary Police (PJ) have reported a robbery at a company specializing in stand assembly and event management during the payout of employee salaries at its premises.

Suddenly, two suspects entered the premises on a motorcycle with false license plates, their faces concealed by helmets and masks. Armed with a firearm, they used violence, assaulted one employee, and issued threats before seizing a cash box containing tens of thousands of euros and fleeing to an unknown location.

On Tuesday, the PJ conducted various operations, gathering substantial evidence to reinforce the pre-existing indicators and attribute the crimes to the suspects.

The suspects, aged 22 and 25, are foreign nationals accused of the crimes of aggravated robbery, document forgery, physical assault, and theft.

They are set to appear in court for an initial hearing and the imposition of coercive measures.
