Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 71641, member: 636"] An organized criminal group responsible for stealing 107 keyless vehicles valued at over two million pounds has been sentenced. The operation, which a judge described as a sophisticated conspiracy, targeted cars and vans from driveways across Hampshire, Dorset, and Wiltshire. Gang members used electronic signal boosters and jammers to unlock vehicles, often returning overnight to steal them before dismantling the cars at a chop shop in Surrey. Victims reported devastating personal and financial consequences, with some losing their livelihoods after tools and irreplaceable sentimental items were taken. Although 61 vehicles were later recovered, many were found severely damaged or stripped for parts, while 46 remain missing. Thirteen individuals received sentences for their roles, including prison terms and suspended sentences for crimes ranging from conspiracy to steal to handling stolen goods. [/QUOTE]
