The identification of a robbery suspect has been called into question at a trial. Expert witness Benedict Spencer told a court that the man in the film said to have been Imran Mostafa was “stockier” and had a “broader build” than Mostafa. The view of prosecution witness William Platts was different, saying that Mostafa’s appearance could have been distorted by him wearing “multiple layers of clothes.” Mostafa was accused of being part of a gang which raided a jewellery shop.

Thieves attempted a daring robbery during museum visiting hours. The gang forced open a display case at the Norfolk premises and quickly grabbed the head of a valuable rhino’s horn within. However the four men were stopped from getting away with it after they were disturbed by museum staff who recovered it from them. Rhino horns can fetch about £50,000 per kilogram in illegal trade, making them at least as valuable as class ‘A’ drugs or gold.
Police want to trace a man spotted on CCTV at a school where the roof was recently stripped. The man was spotted acting suspiciously in the grounds of the south Wales primary at 02:37 BST on August 8. Police urged him to explain his presence, adding: “I’m counting on the local community to take a look at the image and let us know who it is so we can put the question directly to him.”
Closed circuit images have been released of a man suspected of stealing charity cash. Exterior CCTV of the probable thief shows the baseball-capped man running along a boarding ‘plank’ of the waterborne company while interior cameras clearly show him in the act surreptitiously hiding the container of charity cash under his clothes. The charity Crimestoppers offer rewards, of up to £1000 in some cases, where information leads to a conviction.
Police officers are poring over CCTV pictures in the hunt for a missing 12-year-old. Detective Chief Inspector Nick Scola said of the search for Tia Sharp: “We are currently examining CCTV; at this time we have found no trace of Tia on the footage examined thus far, but this is an ongoing process which will take time.” He added that images of the girl and details of her disappearance are spread far and wide, including on social media websites.
CCTV footage revealed a quick stop as a passenger resulted in criminal damage – by chewing a seat. A young man was travelling on a bus journey through the English Riviera, when he apparently took a liking to a leather seat and began biting it. Police are unsure whether he actually digested the piece of seat but the CCTV pictures displayed the suspect clutching a bottle of fizzy drink, which may have been the accompaniment to a meal.
A pensioner and a shop worker were captured on CCTV as they thwarted a gang raid by snatching loot. The five men tried to rob at a jewellery store in Bury St Edmunds. Pensioner Michael Graver, speaking about the botched Suffolk raid, said: “I’ve never done this before and, believe me, I’m not the sort of person who would go looking for trouble in any way, shape or form. I suppose you would say it’s out of character.”
Illegal dumping is the bane of innocent landowners’ lives. One example of this occurring is criminal gangs that collect used tyres and the money from garages and deposit them, often on unsuspecting landowners who have rented out disused farm buildings for storage. The gangs take advantage of the practice when motorists obtain new tyres they pay the garage a ‘green fee’ to get rid of the old ones; then garages pay a middleman to remove the tyres and recycle them.
A bystander took footage of a man setting off fire extinguishers and pulling displays off the walls of a mobile phone shop. Employees in the store said the man had become involved in a war of words and started to damage items in the shop in Manchester city centre on Saturday afternoon.
