Edmond and Eduard Trushi

The Italian authorities have stood up for the capture of two Albanians, twins between them, after they are accused of being the authors of a series of residential burglaries, mainly in the North of Italy.

In fact, the police have asked for the help of citizens by publishing their photo in the local media and have asked them to call immediately if they see them.

"If you see them, call 112". This is the appeal directed by the provincial command of the Carabinieri of Udine, who suspect that Edmond and Eduard Trushi are the authors of the thefts that occurred in recent months. The twins of Albanian origin are authentic specialists: they drill a hole in the window frame, then insert a wire with which they open the door or window and sneak into the house to rob it. With this system, they have made hundreds of 'hits' in recent years in Northern Italy.

Almost identical

The problem is that the two are virtually identical (same haircuts and same tattoos) and it was very difficult to specifically attribute the crime with DNA analysis alone, as their traces left at the crime scene yielded mixed results. uncertainty. However, according to a recent study from the University of Iceland, which confirms an earlier analysis from 2008, even identical homozygous twins have some genetic differences. This was revealed by a University of Iceland study published in 2021 in Nature Genetics, according to which the role of genetic factors in the differences between identical twins has been underestimated.

convictions

Thanks also to the similarity of their DNA, they had been acquitted three times, had been away for a long time and were promptly dubbed 'The Lupin Twins' (who was a 'gentleman thief'). However, even more precise techniques, the analysis of their fingerprints which although they are identical twins, remain different, their movements traced by cell phones and prints, allowed them to be framed and convicted in 2020 by Court of Mantova with 2 years and two months. They had previously received two other sentences in Pordenone: the first for 6 years and 10 months and the second on appeal for 5 years and 5 months. They had also received a deportation order from Italy.

INVESTIGATIONS

But now it seems that they have returned and have set the criminal police on their feet again. Investigators are looking for them as "suspected authors" of the new 'hits'. The commander of the investigative unit of the Provincial Command of the Carabinieri of Udine confirmed to Corriere various reports against them and that investigations and investigations are underway."
