Overview
- Iker Casillas reported on October 16 that five luxury watches had been replaced with fakes and stolen from his Pozuelo de Alarcón home.
- UDEV Central detectives arrested the household assistant and her husband on October 21, and both later appeared before a judge as investigados.
- Investigators recovered at least two pieces through jewelry buyers, including an Audemars Piguet paid out at about €18,000, while another watch was dismantled and sold for roughly €8,000.
- Three of the five watches remain missing as police trace the proceeds and examine the couple’s recent movements and planned trip to Paraguay.
- The husband attributes the thefts to gambling debts and admits taking two watches, and police say the operation’s name refers to an insider source rather than Casillas’s nickname.
