Luxembourg police inspected 60 vacant properties in a late-July crackdown on violent thefts, authorities confirmed.
In late July, Luxembourg police carried out large-scale inspections of vacant properties across the capital as part of efforts to curb a rise in violent thefts.
Authorities focused on squats – illegally occupied buildings – believed to be frequented by suspects linked to such crimes.
The operation resulted in searches of 60 properties, with eight individuals flagged for eviction and two suspects detained following medical evaluation. Officers recovered 27 stolen items during the inspections.
The crackdown involved 30 officers, including investigators from the Criminal Police and a canine unit.
