The president of the merchants, María Cordova, has reported that thanks to the security cameras that exist in this supply center, they have managed to detect that criminals pose as false customers, mostly women, and after adjustment work they choose their victims.
The object of the robbery at the moment, are the amounts of the sale of the day, having managed to misappropriate two thousand, 3 thousand and up to 10 thousand soles in stalls of various items within the aforementioned market.
The modality of the robberies would respond to the same ones that the shopkeepers carry out, hoping that the merchants neglect their stalls or get distracted by attending to the clients at the precise moment in which the money is stolen.
