ItalyThree employees of the Milan Malpensa Airport were arrested for systematically stealing luxury items such as handbags, clothing, and branded goods from passengers' luggage in Terminal 1. The stolen items were collected into a shared 'common fund,' sold online or to fences, and profits divided equally among the thieves. The suspects worked for HBS, a subcontractor responsible for baggage handling. They carefully selected promising luggage from the cargo hold, acting discreetly to avoid leaving obvious traces. Most victims were travelers heading to Southeast Asia who discovered the theft only after arriving at their destination, with many not filing formal complaints. The investigation was complicated by this lack of reports, but Sea, the company managing Malpensa, cooperated fully by providing surveillance footage and other information. Sea clarified that the arrested individuals were not their direct employees but contractors.
