Police collar alleged mobile smugglers

THREE people have been arrested suspected of carrying stolen electronic goods to Morocco to sell.

Police investigators tracked down an Armenian man who allegedly bought stolen goods at higher prices than thieves could get from second-hand shops.

Surveillance revealed that the 41-year-old then passed the items on to a couple who were in charge of taking them to Morocco and selling them.

Officers stopped the couple’s four-wheel drive on a road near Marbella and upon searching the vehicle found a hidden compartment containing 26 mobile phones and four tablets worth approximately €20,000.

All three people were arrested for receiving stolen goods.
