Spanish police arrested last night two alleged Basque armed group ETA members in Arrasate/Mondragón, in Guipuzcoa, Spain. They are both from Lesaka. The first one is Igor Portu, who is 29 years old, and the second one is Martin Sarasola, of 30 years old age.
The detentions were produced in a checkpoint established by the Spanish Police’s Antiterrorist Groups (GAR) in this locality in Guipuzcoa.
As information sources informed, found in the car searching two guns covered with cellophane-like paper, hidden in big backpacks. Some agencies inform that they were given to them “recently”.
Last night Spanish police began the searching of the two arrested. During the searching, which took for four hours, and finished around 01:00, about thirty people have met to show their support to the arrested ones.
These same sources consider Portu and Sarasola “legal” members of the armed organization, or in other words, members which have not been recorded by police.
These two detentions could be related, as the same sources state, with the Gorka Lupiañez Mintegi's detention, made in Berriz last month and also by the Spanish police.
The investigation remains open and some more detentions could be made.
