Overview
- The April attack targeted a couple in southern Spain, with the man shot in the leg and both taken to a house where assailants tried to access their crypto wallets.
- The woman was released around midnight and reported the abduction, and officers later found her partner’s body in a wooded area in Mijas showing signs of violence.
- Police arrested five suspects in Spain and carried out six searches in Madrid and Málaga as part of a coordinated, cross-border investigation.
- Seized items included two handguns (one real and one replica), an expandable baton, a balaclava, blood-stained trousers, and biological traces matching blood found at the holding site.
- Four people have been charged in Denmark, including two already imprisoned for similar offenses, and police released raid footage showing evidence collection and multiple suspects in custody.
