The Palafrugell Local Police have arrested a woman with an extensive criminal record who has been sent to prison by judicial order following intensive surveillance in the Baix Empordà region.

The arrest is the result of a sustained control strategy following an increase in criminal acts detected in the municipality of Palafrugell. Police services had identified an intensification of criminal activity attributed to this individual, with multiple incidents recorded over a short period both in the town and nearby areas.

This model of action allows for the construction of a solid police and judicial record to facilitate more effective measures such as imprisonment.

Faced with repeated offenses, officers acted systematically each time the suspect reoffended. This methodology provided enough evidence for the judicial authority to finally order her imprisonment, effectively halting her criminal activity in the area.
According to Local Police sources, this case is part of a permanent surveillance plan targeting a small group of three to four multi-offenders. The Palafrugell Town Council has praised the coordination with judicial authorities to ensure public safety.
