And fourth arrest for fraud with "monkey" doctors

A fourth arrest in connection with the investigated case where unknown persons pretending to be doctors were extorting money from unsuspecting citizens, the Police proceeded.

According to information, this is a 19-year-old woman against whom an arrest warrant was pending, based on which she was arrested yesterday.

As part of the investigation of the cases, the Police had proceeded in the previous days, with the arrest of two men, aged 52 and 25, and a woman, aged 47.
