“Gato Casero” is Spanish for an inside job. That has been the the assumption of the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) in several cases of stolen cables.
The assumption was confirmed on Monday when the Fuerza Publica (police) detaineda an ICE employee, in Pócora de Guácimo, Limón, with some 250 kgs of cables that appear to have been stolen from the state power company.
The Fiscalía in Pococí is assuming that the haul is part of a big robbery of cable recently at an ICE project in Siquirres.
