Castellon Identity theft

A 25-year-old woman was arrested in Castellon for presenting the health card of another when she gave birth.

The investigation began when police went to her home to arrest her for theft. They found a baby girl in the house which she claimed was not her daughter.

She was taken into custody and police found that when she had the baby, she had presented the health card of another woman in order to get assistance at a health centre.

Therefore, the other woman’s details were on the baby’s birth certificate. She had reported that her handbag, with documents inside it including her health card, had been stolen.

The detainee was charged with identity theft and has a criminal record for robbery and theft.
