Dramatic CCTV images of £53m heist

THESE pictures show the terrifying moments when the masked and armed raiders burst into a high security depot before snatching millions of pounds in February 2006.

The whole robbery, which lasted more than an hour, was caught on a series of CCTV cameras mounted throughout the Securitas depot in Tonbridge.

Footage recovered by police, records staff members cowering against the wall as the raiders, brandishing guns, load £53million into a lorry.

As the gang drove away, the cameras caught the images of employees locked in cages.

Five men were found guilty by a jury at the Old Bailey of conspiracy to kidnap, conspiracy to rob and conspiracy to have in their possession a firearm.
