Wouldn't it take only a few minutes for the police to get the phone number(s) and find out?

Also, eventhough the phone numbers were not always the same, I guess over so many cases, there must be a way for an investigation to find useful information

  I have a friend of mine that has been beaten up badly, twice. 10 years ago by his neighbours, in front of a witness. He got his jaw broken. 5 years ago by a random guy in the street, in front of a security camera that caught the dude car's plate. He got his nose broken. In both cases, the police at best did nothing, at worst tried to activaly prevent action (loosing the case file, not registering it, not passing it around, or asking my friend to not go further). So I'm expecting that for an old guy receiving pizzas, they have zero incentive to even think about it.

    Where is this? (Btw, if your friend is getting beaten up every 5 years and the last time was 5 years ago I'd tell him to hide or stay low for a while.)

      France, which shares lot of similarities with Belgium. And franckly, this comments feels loaded with assumptions.

You're not a bad enough person to understand this wont work: I've unfortunately known someone who had a psychic problem . If she thought you'd crossed her for anything howvere minor, she'd harass you for years. She always has a list of 20 or so victims. She had a never-ending list of new friends, and was the most charming person possible to them. She'd get invited home to them, or found some excuse to come by. Then, when the new friend went to make e.g. some coffee, she'd borrow their phone/computer/wifi/... , commit a few minor crimes like the ones in the article, and by the time the coffee came she was back in the sofa and the new friend was none the wiser. It would take a few months before the friend catches on, at which she'd drop them like a stone and find some new friend to suck dry. Police knows her very well. Every 2 year or so she voluntarily commits herself to a psychiatric institute, at which point the legal system backs off. After 2 weeks she leaves against docters advice and it all starts from 0.
