5 Convicted of Biggest Cash Heist
Five men fa
ce long prison terms when they are sentenced today for staging Britain’s biggest robbery, but almost £32 million of their haul is now beyond the reach of the law in northern Cyprus.
Much of the cash is believed to have been smuggled to the fugitive’s paradise where Sean Lupton — who slipped through the fingers of police investigating the raid — is also thought to be in hiding.
The five were convicted of kidnap, robbery and firearms offences at the Old Bailey yesterday in connection with the 2006 robbery of £53 million from the Securitas depot in Tonbridge, Kent. The gang kidnapped the depot manager, his wife and their young child and used them to gain entry. Only £21 million has so far been recovered.
Key figures involved in the heist are thought to have escaped to the Mediterranean, North Africa and the West Indies. The “Mr Bigs” behind the raid — two men heavily involved in martial arts — have been traced to Morocco.
A 33 year old woman is now living in hiding after providing evidence which was instrumental in the conviction of the 5 suspects. Michelle Hogg, who created the disguises for the heist, is hauled up in a secret location amid fears that there is a price on her head to silence her.

Britney Sees a Psychiatrist
BRITNEY SPEARS is being treated by a psychiatrist for “mental issues”.
The singer’s friend and self-proclaimed manager SAM LUTFI asked top US telly host BARBARA WALTERS to break the news yesterday.
The 78-year-old presenter said: “Britney, I assume, is starting some kind of treatment.
“Sam got in touch with us. I can't vouch for this. He said that Britney is suffering from what he described as mental issues which are treatable.”
However Sam’s intervention doesn’t seem to have gone down to well, after the two were spotted having a huge row outside her home last night.
On arriving back to Britney’s LA house together, the singer broke down in tears on the kerb with Sam only briefly consoling her.
The star – already distraught at having access to her two sons to ex-husband limited to telephone access only – continued crying outside until being comforted by her dad, pregnant 16-year-old sister JAMIE LYNN and boyfriend ADNAN GHALIB.
In a further twist Adnan was banned from entering Britney’s house by security, on orders from Sam who also sent the snapper a text saying: “You’re a manic trigger. If you continue to have any contact, you’ll kill her. It’s your decision.”
Later, desperate to see her partner, Britney jumped into the car of a waiting paparazzo who gave her a lift to a meeting point where they then sped off together
