The Civil Guard has arrested five people (four men and one woman), between 21 and 64 years old and with a police record, for crimes of belonging to a criminal organization, fraud and falsification of documents.

At the end of September, a complaint was filed at the Civil Guard post of Santa Olalla, in which it was reported that a crime of document falsification had been committed by a local real estate agency; that the facts were discovered after carrying out an internal audit the bank that is the object of the scam. In this audit, it was detected that the authors had falsified payroll, income statements and working life of alleged clients, in order to acquire a mortgage loan worth 64,000 euros.

Given this information, steps are taken by the investigation team of the Torrijos company together with the Santa Olalla Civil Guard post and, once the documentation provided by the bank has been collected and collated with the public administrations, the agents observed sufficient evidence to determine that the implicated real estate agency would use legal documents of some of its clients, including one of the real estate owners, to falsify them and that other “clients” obtained illicit mortgage loans.

Faced with this situation, in mid-November, we proceeded to carry out, after an entry and registration order granted by the judicial authority, two searches in two homes and one in a real estate; all these actions were carried out in the town of Santa Olalla.

Modified pistol with ammunition intervened by the Civil Guard

Thanks to these records, numerous documentation as well as computer supports have been intervened that would serve to demonstrate the illicit act that is attributed to this criminal organization as well as to discover the opening of other mortgage loans that they would have achieved by using the same method.

In addition to these documents, the agents intervened a company stamp with which they falsified the payroll to be able to prove their clients’ income, emails to one of the detainees, a graphic designer, where he requested the modifications to be made in the documents, a modified pistol with ammunition and 26,400 euros in cash that were hidden.

For all these reasons, the five people were arrested as the perpetrators of the crimes of document falsification, fraud and membership in a criminal organization.

The proceedings instructed by the Civil Guard were delivered to the Investigating Court acting as Guardia de Torrijos. The operation remains open, so no further arrests are ruled out.
