For anyone that's interested, there's a book called "Stop! Armed Police" by Stephen Smith. It contains a section about the Arifs and their illfated raid on the securicor van in 1990. Theres photos of the raid (taken by cops) so it's worth a rwad just for that. Total setup by the cops from start to finish. Very reminiscent of the Woolwich raid in 1987 where Tony Ash was killed by the PT17 cops. Tonys body was left out for all to see - the message being put out by the state "if you're going to attempt armed robbery this is how you'll end up". Tonys brother stated as much.

Interestingly, 'arif' in Arabic means 'informed', a step closer to 'wise' as in 'wise guy'. Thank me later.

[@a.v.london1952]

Why did you say Krays where from North london?

[@Peternic74]

I think they meant North of the river

[@BillAjao]

North of the river....

[@GG-jw8pt]

And why is Hackney classified as east, when it's geographically north London?

[@BillAjao]

@@GG-jw8pt because it's to the east of central whereas say Tottenham is directly north of central

[@operator1717]

As my old nan used to say; ‘Never go south of the river or north of Chigley’.
