Two British citizens were taken into custody in Ibiza after a tourist was robbed of a watch worth £105,000.
In a recent incident on the beautiful island of Ibiza, a tourist fell victim to a robbery as he was leaving a bar in a luxurious area. The victim, who wishes to remain anonymous, reported that his expensive watch, worth a staggering £105,000, was forcefully taken from him by a group of assailants who cut his wrist in order to remove it. This terrifying incident took place on Thursday, June 4th, and the police were immediately notified.

After three days of thorough investigation, the authorities were able to apprehend three suspects, two of whom were British and one was French. It is believed that they are part of a criminal gang responsible for a series of similar robberies. The suspects, aged 34, 23, and 21, were arrested on charges of belonging to a criminal gang, robbery, and forgery. In addition, one of the suspects was found to be in possession of stolen identification.

During the arrest, the police discovered various tools commonly used in these types of crimes, including radio frequency signal jammers and car tracking devices. These items were confiscated as evidence and further strengthened the case against the suspects. It is worth noting that designer watch muggings are not uncommon in Ibiza, but they are usually carried out by Italian, Moroccan, or eastern European gangs.

The arrests took place on Sunday, but the details were not made public until now. A spokesperson for the National Police in Ibiza stated that the arrests were made by the UDEV unit, which specializes in tackling specialized and violent crime. The victim, who had been shaken by the traumatic experience, expressed relief and gratitude upon hearing the news of the arrests.

Unfortunately, the stolen watch has not yet been recovered and the investigation is still ongoing. This is not the first time a tourist has fallen victim to a robbery in Ibiza. Just last month, DJ Franky Wah had his car broken into and his valuable possessions, including his music and laptop, were stolen. In a separate incident, professional footballer Cristiano Piccini had his luxury watch taken by motorbike muggers in broad daylight, in front of his wife and children.

The police are urging anyone with information regarding these incidents to come forward and help bring the perpetrators to justice. The safety and security of tourists is of utmost importance and the authorities are determined to put an end to these types of crimes. We hope that with the help of the public, the stolen watch will be recovered and returned to its rightful owner.
