Hatton Garden heist: £20,000 reward offered by police

A £20,000 reward has been offered for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the burglary at Hatton Garden Safety Deposit company. 

Appearing on BBC1’s Crimewatch last night, Detective Superintendent Craig Turner, head of the Flying Squad, appealed for witnesses to the robbery which took place over the Easter bank holiday weekend.

The programme revealed 14 new CCTV images of six suspects entering and leaving the scene of the burglary, in an attempt to jog people’s memory.

Detectives also released an image of the actual drill used to bore through the wall inside the vault, and are appealing to partners of drill experts.

Turner said: “We have also released an image of the Hilti DD350 drill that was used in the burglary and we are keen to hear from wives or partners of anyone who has specialist knowledge or skills that use this sort of equipment.

He added: “Were they away during the Easter bank holiday weekend or have they been acting oddly since the burglary was carried out?”
