Title: DOES ANYONE REMEMBER WHAT YEAR Post by: gmoneyAK on March 13, 2006, 08:19:04 PM hello there was an audacious attempt a few years ago at stealing some diamonds by a group of young lads from cheetham hill manchester. They got someone to pretend to be the sultan of brunei's brother. There was a great documentary about this that i remembre seeing on channel 4 but cant remember what year the crime took place. Ive googled it but cant find any info. Does anyone remember what year this took place.
