BT offeres £15,000 for information
A reward of up to £15,000 is being offered for information in connection with a burglary at a BT exchange on Commercial Road, Stepney Green.
Telecommunications equipment, which assists in powering the telecommunications network in the area, was stolen during the burglary.
Police said: “This type of incident can cause real disruption to the telephone network and deprive people of the use of their telephones and computers. It is essential the persons responsible for this irresponsible crime are brought to justice and prevented from committing similar acts in the future.”
Mark Hughes, BT’s Group Security Director, said: “Attacks on BT’s network can impact upon the safety of local communities. BT takes these matters very seriously and we fully support the Met Police in their enquiries. We have decided to offer a reward for information to bring those people responsible for this, and similar incidents in the London area, to justice.”
