The individuals have had court orders served, forbidding them from entering Málaga Airport, after their arrest over alleged incidents of theft involving tourists.

The three suspects; a 24-year-old woman and two men of 32 and 34 respectively, were arrested during the last week of March by the Policía Nacional. The arrests were the fruit of a ‘preventative operation’ carried out at the said airport.

Police officers reportedly witnessed how a woman removed a bag containing 1,500 euros from a couple as they made inquiries at a car-hire office. Also removed from their baggage was a camera and a laptop computer.

Police observed how the woman allegedly worked as a team with two men driving a top-range car.
