The police started two criminal cases over car theft and stealing of things from car. As the suspects are minors, they are investigated outside jail. Earlier, they were investigated for street offences and burglary. They face a fine of 10,000 to 20,000 lei or one to three years in jail.
The National Patrolling Inspectorate recommends motor vehicle owners to outfit their cars with sensor alarm systems on windows and hood and to check if the vehicle’s windows and doors are closed. At night, the vehicles should be parked in specially set up and lit places. No valuable things such as bags, wallets, identity cards, credit cards, mobile phones and audio and video equipment should be left in the car in sight.
