The agents went to Calle Jose Bermejo, where the robbery took place, before arresting the suspects, who have now been taken into police custody. The news comes after two brothers were put in prison for the armed robbery of three pharmacies in Malaga. National Police officers detained two brothers of Spanish nationality in Malaga, 44 and 49, for their alleged involvement in assaults at three pharmacies in the capital. The two brothers who have entered prison by order of the judicial authority, acted with their faces hidden and in a coordinated manner. Investigation work has led to their identifications. According to reports into the incidents, all of which occurred last January, the suspects acted together and were wearing sunglasses, a mask and other items to hide their faces. Whilst one of those investigated went directly to the establishment’s staff, the second went into the counter in order to steal money from the cash register. To carry out the assaults, they had large bladed weapons with which they threatened staff. Inquiries carried out in the surroundings of the establishments, together with an expert report from the Scientific Police, allowed the officers to identify the two responsible. Officers arrested the suspects on April 13 for their alleged involvement in four robberies using violence and intimidation in Malaga.
