The National Police have arrested five individuals in Puerto del Rosario for their alleged involvement in a fraud scheme totaling €34,510 against a person with severe intellectual disabilities. The victim reportedly suffered financial losses through bank transfers, credit card payments, cash withdrawals, and transactions via Bizum.
Among those detained are the owner of a establishment offering sexual services, three employees, and the holder of a bank account receiving part of the funds. Investigators allege that the workers coerced the victim into consuming alcohol and narcotics, taking advantage of her vulnerability to influence her financial decisions.
Analysis of banking activity and surveillance footage revealed a consistent pattern of transactions, facilitating the identification of the suspects. The investigation remains ongoing, with authorities seeking to locate two additional individuals connected to the case.
