In mid-September, two men were arrested in Falkenberg Municipality after a brief police hunt that ended on a field in Asige. During the arrest, several bags of jewelry were found, including expensive watches and rings, which are suspected to have been stolen from private individuals around the country.
The days before the arrest, the duo are suspected of breaking into residential buildings in several locations where they stole the jewelry. Among other things in Västerås, Uppsala and Norrköping. One man must also have stolen a bank card with the associated PIN code which he had emptied of money, a total of around SEK 30,000.
The men are now being prosecuted at the Halmstad District Court for several cases of theft, theft and fraud.
Both men deny the crime.
