:01:20. > :01:25.night time, I wake up and even though I am on sleeping tablets I
:01:26. > :01:30.still wake up with nightmards. How difficult is this investigation
:01:31. > :01:34.proving? It has been really complex and that is because some of these
:01:35. > :01:39.allegations go back more th`n 4 years and that makes it difficult to

:03:10. > :03:14.working in a factory. For a very long time. This is a callous crime
:03:15. > :03:19.committed by individuals who have shown no regard to the feelhngs of
:03:20. > :03:24.this family. They broke in here ransacked it and stole a large
:03:25. > :03:29.amount of the wedding and Asian jewellery and cash. That is why

:07:21. > :07:29.they would be fast. We did ` good job. I think we did a good job. We
:07:30. > :07:34.knew from the start we would be thereabouts and it was about riding
