Fortunately, the victim, an elderly woman, was not injured, but she experienced incredible drama in her own home.
According to information from the investigation, the unknown perpetrators broke into the house, entering and leaving through a window, and took the woman's savings amounting to 130,000 euros, as well as a considerable amount of gold jewelry.
That this was a well-organized and cold-blooded action is also evident by the fact that during the robbery, the thieves locked the unfortunate woman in the bathroom in order to prevent her from calling for help.
Robbery planned in detail?
According to initial unofficial information, investigators suspect that the robbery was "a tip off" - that is, that the burglars had precise information in advance that there was a large amount of cash and valuables in the house.
"The way they entered, the speed with which they acted and the fact that they knew exactly where the money was, indicate that the thieves recieved a tip-off and that they had been following the owner's movements for a long time," says a source close to the investigation.
Pet taken to prevent raising alarm?
The strangest and distressing detail about this brazen robbery is the disappearance of a pet. During the investigation, the woman told the inspectors that her dog disappeared from the house.
As it is a small-breed dog that physically could not jump out the window on its own, it is suspected that the burglars took it with them - either to prevent it from barking while they were escaping, or to prevent the unfortunate animal from returning to the house.
The police carried out a detailed investigation, took fingerprints and other evidence, while a review of security cameras footage from the surrounding streets and from neighboring buildings is underway in order to track down the criminals as soon as possible.
The elderly woman, despite suffering great shock and stress, fortunately did not suffer any physical injuries.
