“What has happened to us is very strong,” said María del Monte, hours after learning that her nephew, Antonio Tejado, had been arrested in relation to the robbery he suffered at his home last August. A robbery with violence that they experienced in the middle of the night, and from which, as his wife, the journalist Inmaculada Casal, assured, they still have not shaken off “the shock from their bodies.”
The judge in charge of the case has already sent Tejado to provisional prison, considering him the intellectual author of the robbery, something that his aunt hoped would never happen. However, there is definitive evidence that the Civil Guard found that places his nephew at the epicenter of this entire case.
The secrecy of the summary continues in the detention of Antonio Tejado, but new details continue to be revealed regarding the police investigation. The case, known as ‘operation Abgena’, would have Tejado as the main person involved, a fact discovered by the Civil Guard in its investigation.
Journalist Ángel Moya revealed this in Mañaneros, on La 1, explaining that the Civil Guard had definitive proof to demonstrate their involvement; and he located a secondary motive in the records of Tejado’s house. “It is a prepaid cell phone that, without being in his name, he used to communicate with the rest of the gang.”
A telephone that was crucial in the investigation of the case, since it was thanks to that device with which all the detainees’ conversations could be analyzed. “For this reason, the Civil Guard has found plenty of evidence to incriminate him, and the judge sees it that way too; that these signs are powerful and support the investigation,” adds Moya.
Tejado has been placed in provisional prison, but everything seems to indicate that his defense team will do everything possible to get him out immediately, since Tejado is not one of the “material” authors of the robbery; that is, he does not go home. According to Moya, in Tejado’s case he could opt for “a sentence slightly lower than the rest.”
The singer’s nephew was one of the six people that the head of the Court of Instruction 16 of Seville sent to jail in provisional detention, after the arrest of eight people last Friday, accused of belonging to an organization dedicated to robberies with violence. and intimidation in homes. Tejado was thus admitted to the Sevilla I prison on Monday afternoon, waiting for the case to be investigated.
The case is investigating alleged crimes of robbery with violence, illegal detention, injuries, threats and membership in a criminal organization, according to the Superior Court of Justice of Andalusia (TSJA).
This Monday the Civil Guard also reported that the detainees were preparing a new coup with which they hoped to obtain around one million euros, an operation that was aborted with the arrest of the eight involved.
