Two men convicted of breach of the peace

The emergency services of the Zug police observed two men who had illegally entered two communal garages. They were convicted of breach of the  peace and have had to leave Switzerland.

On last Friday afternoon, 8 May, a police officer in the municipality of Cham spotted a suspicious all-terrain vehicle with Serbian number plates. According to the press release of the Zug law enforcement authorities, two men were sitting in the car, waiting in front of a private communal garage until a resident drove out of the garage, and then took this opportunity to drive into the garage. This procedure was repeated a short time later at another communal garage. The men then left the scene empty-handed, and drove away in their vehicle.

While they were being followed by an unmarked police vehicle, the driver accelerated strongly, and finally stopped in the Bachtalen area in Baar, where the passenger suddenly jumped out of the car and ran into the forest. He was stopped by the police and arrested. His accomplice, who had driven on, was also stopped and arrested. The men are two Serbs aged 33 and 35.

The men claimed to be buying vehicles in Switzerland and transferring them to Serbia. The summary court of the public prosecutor's office of the Canton of Zug sentenced the two Serbs to a conditional fine of 30 daily rates each for breach of the peace. They were expelled from the country by the Office of Migration, and were forbidden from re-entering Switzerland and the territory of the Schengen states for three-years.
