Moment Rolex robbers caught by police posing as rich couple
A team of Rolex thieves were snared by undercover police officers posing as a wealthy couple in Mayfair, London.
Yakob Harket, 21, of no fixed address, and Mohamed Naas, 35, of Jamaica Road, Southwark, were arrested after Harket attempted to steal a high-value watch from plain-clothed officers in Hays Mews at around 6.15pm on 10 October, last year.
Harket pleaded guilty to robbery and Naas was found guilty following a trial at Southwark Crown Court on 11 April.
Harket was jailed for two years while Naas was jailed for three years.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “Uniform and plain clothes officers proactively patrol robbery hotspots to identify offences taking place, but more importantly to help prevent and deter offenders from committing robberies in the first place.”
