The robbers stole jewellery, worth £292,165 in total, during the raid at Danyaal Jewellers in Sparkbrook after smashing a stolen Toyota Hilux into the front of the shop on March 3 last year.
Three of the men armed with a sledgehammer then went inside, smashing their way into two display cabinets, and began stashing jewellery in bags while the fourth man remained in the Hilux and a fifth man acted as ‘crowd control’ waving an axe at witnesses.
