Heist boss misses court hearing through ill health

The mastermind behind the Hatton Garden jewellery raid may only have months to live, a court heard.

Brian Reader, 77, suffered a stroke while being held at Belmarsh Prison.

He and six others were due to be sentenced in a three-day hearing, starting on Monday, over the £14m Hatton Garden safety deposit box heist.
