Farmer: nobody stole €50 000 worth of GPS systems. I took them off myself

On Friday, police bulletins reported that thieves robbed a farmer's equipment shed in Vilkaviskis district, with losses estimated at €50 000. Around 10 am. At 10:37 a.m., a report was received that between 9 March and 13 March, navigation antennas, two engine and controller computers, and a sprayer with a control and hydraulics computer and three monitors had been stolen from the tractors in a farm building. A pre-trial investigation has been opened," police said.

However, the situation soon turned out to be quite different and the circumstances curious.

The farmer himself (whose name is known to the editors) contacted „Agrobite“, explaining that he was currently in the process of divorcing his wife.

„We are now at odds (with his wife). We are dividing our property through the courts. And those things are not stolen. There was no theft. I took those systems off myself and put them away. Nothing is missing, explained the man who has lived with his wife for 35 years. – I'm just backed into a corner because I'm not the farm manager. And there were two monitors, not three&ndquo;.

After explaining the situation, the man assured „Agrobite“ that he would never again be a victim in his life.
