The family of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alysha Behague, along with their two children aged six and eleven, returned yesterday to their home in Castelldefels, the scene of a violent assault early Monday morning by at least four armed and hooded men who They were held for about an hour to steal. The woman was the one who made the decision to return to the house to try to restore normality and reassure her children, following the advice of the psychologist who has been with the family in recent hours. Barcelona has hired two security guards who have been permanently at the home since yesterday.
As the hours go by, La Vanguardia has learned from the player's environment details of the violent assault during which the thieves took loot estimated, according to the victims, at 700,000 euros. Less than half of the million and a half in jewelry and watches that were already taken from them on July 17 during a previous robbery in which the thieves acted stealthily despite the fact that the woman was in the house.
Alysha Behague was the one who took the brunt of the assault. The couple was not alone in the house. Next to them was a first cousin of the player who he said was his bodyguard, a sister of the woman, and the childcare worker; in addition to the Terrassa player Babanzila Meshak, also from Gabon. They were all taken to the dining room of the house, where they were forced to remain lying on the floor, face down. The assailants then allowed the two small children to join their parents, who were allowed to sit up on their laps. Each of them covered their children's eyes with both hands, while they asked them to cover their ears themselves, without failing to tell them at all times not to be afraid, that everything would be fine, but not to move.
It was the striker's wife who, upon verifying that a group of armed hooded men entered her house, after jumping the fence that separates the garden from the street, tried to run to the panic button that they have connected to a private security company. It was at that moment when one of the assailants stopped her by grabbing her hair, dragged her on the ground, in addition to slapping and hitting her. Aubameyang tried to intervene, at which point he was stopped by being hit in the face with the butt of a shotgun. A wound that has caused a crack in the jaw.
One of the details that the woman did not overlook and that has been transferred to the Mossos d'Esquadra, who yesterday afternoon were with the family in the house, is that the thieves demanded that she hand over some very concrete that she had not had time to display on her Instagram account. For example, one that her husband had just given her days before for her birthday at a party where only the couple's relatives attended.
Investigators suspect the assailants previously followed the couple. She took it upon herself to repeat to the thieves on several occasions that they had recently been robbed and that they did not have many of the things they asked for.
The police examined the house with the couple to see if the security cameras did not record anything of the assault because they were disconnected by the assailants, or they broke down.
Since July, four of the five houses on that street in Castelldefels have been robbed. One of the neighbors, Victor Ciurana, detailed yesterday the numerous calls to 112 that he made in the last month warning of the presence of hooded men. His cameras recorded the assailants of the soccer player's house on July 17, three days after scoring and providing the Mossos with the license plate of the car used by the thieves, stolen in Sitges. Three days before the violent assault they also called 112 due to the presence of suspects "but we got tired of waiting and answering the absurd questions of the telephone operator." That night they also robbed.
