[QUOTE="Brian MacGregor, post: 5565042, member: 111730"] Seven weeks on, after the heist, Detective Sgt Michael Cosh Inverness CID has still failed to interview Colin Lawson's drivers. Last night Channel 4 Dispatches reported how around 65% of vehicle thefts go undetected, screened out of the system. In the Moy case. We know how a fake invoice was used to instigate the heist. We know who handled the stolen goods. My son-in-law.Strathclyde Commercials and Colin Lawson Transport Aberdeen, and we know that the bulk of the equipment is held in Strathclyde's yard in East Kilbride. Police can't get it released because Strathclyde are insisting that I should pay their ransom of £3K, the price they paid Colin Lawson for transporting the stolen gear. At around 10AM the morning after the heist I phoned Colin Lawson's office informing them that their wagons were passing Blackburn and carrying stolen equipment. Kevin Ryan then alleged it was too late to do anything as the equipment was by that time unloaded in Glasgow.
