A judge in Vigo ordered four people held in provisional prison without bail on Sunday, 1 November, after their arrest this week over alleged home burglaries.

The four, who appeared before the court that day, are also accused of belonging to a criminal group and attacking officers. The charges remain allegations.

Three people were arrested during a Policía Nacional operation in the Canido area on Thursday afternoon. A fourth person initially escaped and was arrested later.

The magistrate cited a high risk of flight and repeat offending, and a lower risk of affecting evidence, according to sources at the Tribunal Superior de Xustiza (TSXG). The judge considered provisional detention necessary, appropriate and proportionate.
