The Guardia Civil has arrested two individuals, aged 51 and 54, in Almansa, Spain, on suspicion of committing multiple thefts targeting elderly victims. The suspects, both Colombian nationals residing in Valencia, were apprehended by the local investigative unit of the Guardia Civil following an investigation into their alleged activities as 'cogoteros,' a term used to describe thieves who target people after they withdraw cash from banks.

Separately, the Asociación Unificada de Guardias Civiles (AUGC) has announced its intention to participate in legal proceedings regarding a distinct case in Irun, Gipuzkoa. In that incident, the Ertzaintza arrested two individuals suspected of terrorism-related offenses. The AUGC has subsequently called for increased security measures at Guardia Civil barracks in response to the Irun arrests.
