警方破获盗窃犯罪团伙

Covert police surveillance cracked the Chilean burglary network’s signature method of operation.

警方秘密监控破解了智利入室盗窃网络的标志性作案方法。

After gathering intelligence by tracking one of several cars identified as being linked to the gang, officers latched on to four burglars, one a teenager and all recently arrived from Santiago, the Chilean capital.

警方追踪了几辆被认定与该团伙有关联的汽车中的一辆，收集了情报后，抓住了四名窃贼，其中一名是十几岁的少年，他们都是最近从智利首都圣地亚哥赶来的。

The gang travelled from south London, where their leaders are believed to have set up base, and travelled to Rickmansworth in Hertfordshire.

这支犯罪团伙是从伦敦南部过来的，在那里据说他们的头目建立了基地，然后去到了赫特福德郡的里克曼沃斯。

Following the pattern of each of the raids, the gang picked up the car from an on-street parking spot and entered the first floor of the property using what they could find in the garden to aid them.

按照每次袭击的模式，这伙人从街上的某个停车点偷盗汽车汽车，然后用他们在花园里能找到的东西帮助他们进入房子的一楼。

At Scotland Yard’s request Hertfordshire officers swarmed over the suspects as they tried to get away with jewellery destined to be posted to Chile.

在苏格兰场的要求下，赫特福德郡的警官们包围了嫌疑犯们，那时他们正试图带着准备寄往智利的珠宝逃走。

Alexis Apablaza, 22, Angelo Bustamente, 34, Javier Kurte, 24, and Gustavo Ahumada-Paredes, 19, were each sentenced to two years.

艾利克斯.阿巴布拉扎，22岁，安杰罗.巴斯特门特，34岁，杰威尔.科特，24岁还有古斯塔沃.奥玛达.帕瑞德斯，19岁，没人都被判刑两年。

They made no comment in police interviews and pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity.

他们在警方的询问中没有发表任何评论，并在第一时间认罪。

“When we got our heads around what was going on we did some covert work and identified four burglars leaving south London, making their way across London to Rickmansworth where they were observed to commit a burglary and then we arranged for them to be arrested,” Detective Inspector Tim Court said.

“当我们开关于这件事的碰头会时，我们做了一些秘密工作，然后鉴别出了四名准备离开南部伦敦的窃贼，他们一路从伦敦到里克曼沃斯，在那里进行了一次盗贼，然后我们就安排了对他们的抓捕，”探长提姆.考特说道。

Concerns were raised about the burglars in July last year after a spate of crimes in 2016.

去年7月，在2016年发生了一系列犯罪事件后，关于盗窃案人们开始人心惶惶。

When Ailin Miranda, 22, and Alfredo Rodriguez, 34, were sentenced to 20 months, it was said that the gang were sending new crews every two weeks.

当22岁的艾琳·米兰达(Ailin Miranda)和34岁的阿尔弗雷多·罗德里格斯(Alfredo Rodriguez)被判20个月监禁时，据说这个团伙每两周就会派出一批新成员。

They had been caught raiding in Oxford and had money boxes and jewellery worth £15,000.

人们发现他们在牛津作案，并拥有价值15,000英镑的保险箱和珠宝。

Judge Zoe Smith told them: “Domestic burglary is very serious. The occupiers are greatly disturbed by it and children are very frightened.”

法官佐伊.史密斯告诉他们：“国内的盗窃犯罪非常严重。居民们对此深感困扰，孩子们也非常害怕。”
