Three sons of the radical cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri were jailed today for their part in the theft of more than £1 million worth of luxury cars that were then sold all over Europe.
Hamza's sons, Hamza Kamel, 22, and Mohamed Mostafa, 27, along with his stepson Mohssin Ghailam, 28, helped run the two-year fraud with four other men.
The gang targeted BMWs, Range Rovers and Mercedes that had been left for weeks in long-stay car parks. They exploited a loophole in the DVLA system to divert registration details from the real owners to front addresses. Using false documentation they received log books and keys. |
