Spanish police have now taken charge of the alleged perpetrators of the theft of the priceless bottles of wine from the Atrio Restaurant in Spain.
The suspects arrived on the afternoon of Wednesday, August 3, at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport and have been transferred to Cáceres, where they will testify in court today, on Thursday, August 4.
The former Mexican beauty queen and her accomplice were arrested in Croatia on Wednesday, July 20, by Spanish police, in connection with the theft last year of 45 bottles of wine from a restaurant in Spain.
The rare bottles of wine that the couple allegedly stole are thought to be worth an estimated $1.7 million (€1.65m).
The suspects arrived last night at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport, on a flight from Dubrovnik, accompanied by agents of the Spanish National Police belonging to the SIRENE Office.
