Once inside, the criminals, in order to bypass the video surveillance system and the alarm placed on the door of the company owner's office, had made a hole in the wall dividing the bathroom from the main office, on a wall where a cabinet safe was positioned.
Then, with carpentry tools and the use of a flex, they managed to open a hole in the wall behind the safe, stealing its contents, including a second and smaller metal safe that was anchored to the main safe. The investigations allowed them to reconstruct all the phases of the theft.
