speaking from many years in the detecting trade most jewellery thefts involve guns

even the recent harry Winston theft involved a daylight raid, guns and lots of shouting. can anyone here remember the last overnight/weekend jewellery raid that wasnt an inside job. i cant.

the problem is we dont know if a break in occurred or whether keys were used. all useful bits of info. i assume that the report of policeman and staff counting watches during stock take was after the theft and not during.

i'm a bit out of practice in detecting crime, but if i were the investigating officer i'd be thinking...hmmmmm??? then checking every minute in the life of every member of staff over the last 6 months. its amazing what crawls out of the woodwork with a bit of searching.

There are quite a few ways this could have taken place and too few details to really comment.... then again there can't be that many viable explanations... ;-) This message has been edited by AFSG on 2008-12-30 04:33:24

Has any of the other major retailers in Singapore been hit by something similar in the past?
