Drugs theft in Málaga

The State Security Forces are investigating the theft of drugs from a judicial storage facility in the port area of Málaga. The Sanidad Exterior warehouse in the port is used to store drugs seized during various police investigations.

The thieves were professionals, using a thermal lance to gain entry, disabling the alarm system and bypassing the security cameras. They used a large van or lorry to remove the drugs. It is not being discounted that the thieves had inside information, such was the apparent precision of the operation.

The robbery took place over the weekend, although nobody noticed until the security guard turned up for work at 07:00 on Monday morning and found the entrance had been forced.

The security at the facility consisted of a security guard on duty from 07:00 to 15:00 Monday to Friday and video surveillance for the rest of the time. Security has now been strengthened with a guard now on duty twenty-four hours a day.
