During a burglary in Chaves, 500 cards and 200 passports were stolen, according to multiple sources. Among the stolen items were also two safes, 500 euros, and two white seals.

Entry into the building was gained by forcing open the main door. The Public Security Police (PSP) is investigating the case and collected evidence at the crime scene.

Although the total value of the stolen items has not been specified, the number of passports and cards is alarming and raises concerns about personal data security.
