O Central Civil and Criminal Court of Portalegre sentenced a man for theft crimes in Elvas and Campo Maior, in the sentence of six years and six months in prison, today revealed the Public Prosecutor (MP).
In a press release published on the website of the Regional Attorney General's Office in Évora, the MP indicated that the defendant was convicted by judgment delivered on Monday for the practice of four theft crimes in those locations of the district of Portalegre.
The facts occurred in May and June this year, on the public road and in broad daylight, on the streets of the city of Elvas and also of Campo Maior, the MP advanced.
“The court proved that the defendant preferably approached vulnerable people (elderly and persons with reduced mobility) and, with refusal by force and physical violence, appropriated objects that the victims carried with them, including articles in gold,” the Public Prosecutor added.
