بریڈ فورڈ؛ بلال شاہ، بابر اقبال اور ابروز راجہ کو بریڈفورڈ میں مرسڈیز اور بی ایم ڈبلیو چوری کرنے کے جرم میں جیل کی سزا
Bradford, UK; Three young burglars Bilal Shah, Baber Iqbal and Abuzar Raja who targeted a Bradford house at dead of night to steal the keys to three valuable cars have been jailed for a total of more than 13 years.
The trio raided the property in Moorside Gardens, Eccleshill, on November 29 last year in what the sentencing judge described as “a sophisticated, planned and organised enterprise.”
Bilal Shah, 22, of Gaythorne Terrace, Clayton, Bradford, was imprisoned for four and a half years after a jury convicted him of the burglary and the theft of a Mercedes-Benz E-Class, a BMW X5 and a BMW 5 series.
Baber Iqbal, 24, of Princeville Road, Lidget Green, Bradford, was jailed for four years and seven months after pleading guilty to the burglary and to handling a stolen van on April 2 while he was on bail.
Abuzar Raja, 22, of Aberdeen Place, Lidget Green, Bradford, was jailed for four years and three months after admitting the burglary offence.
Judge David Hatton QC said the burglars smashed a window at the house to steal computers, an iPhone and the keys to the vehicles parked on the drive. The men arrived at the scene in a VW Jetta that was seized by the police and confiscated by the court.
