Spanish Police Dismantle Armed Sect in Cáceres
Authorities arrest three members and seize over 80 weapons from a group accused of fraud and organized crime.
- The sect, known as 'Ahora estás en casa,' was led by a self-proclaimed 'Messiah' who claimed to communicate daily with Jesus.
- Police investigations revealed that the group defrauded over 100 victims of at least one million euros, urging them to sell their possessions and donate the proceeds.
- A significant portion of the defrauded funds was used to acquire weapons, including silencers and ammunition worth at least 73,000 euros.
- The leader of the sect passed away from a heart attack in January, after which his widow continued the group's activities until her arrest.
- The sect's operations included social media recruitment and promoting a message of self-defense against perceived threats from powerful entities.
