The police have arrested all men, reportedly British, and involved in the robbery, at a London police station. They are being held on suspicion of conspiracy to rob, reports say. The robbery took place last month. The police filed charges after detaining the nine suspects, after it raided 12 properties in the London and Kent areas. Also, officers recovered some bags containing high-value property at one of the addresses and are searching at the other locations, reports say.
The police conveyed appologies for not immediately responding to the alarm triggered at the safety deposit box business in central London at the time of the robbery. It was earlier reported that the call reporting it was not designated as sufficiently urgent to warrant an immediate response and that the gang was inside the building when police did arrive, as per reports.
Hatton Garden is known as London's jewellery quarter.
