translated from Spanish: Justice decreed pre-trial detention for the six arrested by the millionaire robbery at the airport

During this day, six suspects were formalized by the millionaire robbery at Pudahuel Airport and finally the Justice decreed pre-trial detention for the six detainees was initiated via videoconference. In the instance the chief prosecutor of the case, Eduardo Baeza, recounted that “in order to perpetrate and secure the crime, given the need to know in detail the units where the money was deposited, the defendants contacted Walter Lizama Guzmán, the official of the Customs agency Julio Venegas y Cía, who performs work in the premises where the robbery occurred”.” To this end, proving the existence of a highly planned organization, they met on multiple occasions prior to the theft, one of which occurred on 28 February 2020, at which time the accused Walter Lizama gave the other accused information on the operations and facilities of the place,” he said. It is worth mentioning that Baeza set the total theft (including dollars and euros) at 13.140 million pesos, which is why he applied for pre-trial detention for the subjects. All six subjects were charged with the offences of robbery with violence and intimidation, vehicle reception and patent plate reception. A period of 120 was set for the investigation.
