"Two robbers disguised in Afghan-style robes stole £200,000 worth of jewellery from an exclusive London store.
The pair entered Ramot, in Sloane Street, Knightsbridge, disguised in burqas and full length robes which covered their bodies and faces.

However, once inside they flung open their gowns to reveal guns before locking staff in a back room and making off with the gems in a getaway car.

Scotland Yard said the robbery was carried out by a man and woman just after 1000 GMT on Wednesday.
