A Torrevieja judge has bailed four Lithuanians at three thousand euros each, after they were remanded in custody in July for allegedly being part of a Guardamar and Pilar de la Horadada-based operation that stole Toyota Land Cruiser cars and shipped them to Lithuania. The men have had their passports taken away and will have to report to the authorities every fortnight.
Two other defendants have already been released, whilst five other Lithuanians are still wanted on European arrest warrants after last summer’s joint operation between the Guardia Civil and Europol. Fourteen stolen vehicles worth around 430 thousand euro have so far been recovered by the Guardia, with the gang stealing the vehicles in Madrid as well as in Alicante Province and the Murcia region.
