A neighbor from Zaragoza received a foreign card and did not hesitate to take advantage of it. The National Police soon found it
A foreign card, a cap, some glasses and loose days of May were enough. A 58 -year -old man, a resident in Zaragoza, took advantage of the fact that a banking entity sent a card to his home – which was no longer that of the headline – and used it to make several extractions of money. In total, almost 6,000 euros in cash. But it was the head of the head that detected the movements and filed the complaint. The National Police soon acts. The card did not belong. The legitimate head resides abroad and was his brother, who still lives in Spain, who detected the strange positions in the account and filed the complaint with the National Police. What seemed a simple error in the shipment resulted in an investigation for improper appropriation. As explained by Rubén Nido, official spokesman for the body, In a video broadcast by La8 Zaragozathe agents began to follow the trail of the reimbursements. Five days, several extractions and an improvised costume. Between the eight and May 13, the man made several extractions at different ATMs of Zaragoza. He made it covered by a cap and with glasses to hinder his identification in security cameras. The costume was not enough. The images were key to binding ends and locating it. He was arrested in the immediate vicinity of his home, the same place where he had received the card days before. At this time it is known that he was brought to court and declared before the competent authority. It should be noted that the suspect already had a history of similar events. Now he has been released with charges while the process continues its course. What began with a simple postal error has ended, again, before a court. The Criminal Code is clear. According to Europa Presscurrent legislation contemplates this type of situations as a crime. Use a bank card to the detriment of its owner or a third can lead to a punishment between six months and three years in prison. What happened in Zaragoza is not an isolated case. In Zamora, a neighbor of Benavente was convicted after receiving a bizum of 20 euros by mistake and not return it, despite having been warned. The Provincial Court confirmed that its refusal also constituted undue appropriation. Result: mandatory return, fine of 180 euros and judicial costs.
