The Untold Story of the World’s Biggest Diamond Heist

In February 2003, Notarbartolo was arrested for heading a ring of Italian thieves. They were accused of breaking into a vault two floors beneath the Antwerp Diamond Center and making off with at least $100 million worth of loose diamonds, gold, jewelry, and other spoils. The vault was thought to be impenetrable. It was protected by 10 layers of security, including infrared heat detectors, Doppler radar, a magnetic field, a seismic sensor, and a lock with 100 million possible combinations. The robbery was called the heist of the century, and even now the police can’t explain exactly how it was done.

The loot was never found, but based on circumstantial evidence, Notarbartolo was sentenced to 10 years. He has always denied having anything to do with the crime and has refused to discuss his case with journalists, preferring to remain silent for the past six years.

Until now.

It was in Brazil, in the city of Fortaleza. It is billed as the greatest heist in history and the masterminds have never been found till today.

some were found, if am not wrong they were 13 guys in total, 3 were caught but they pleaded not guilty. Actually, mmojawao alijulikana when he took his car to car wash, hapo mahali dirisha ‘hujificha’ thats where he had hidden the money, so huyu jamaa wa car wash, akifanya cleaning, akaona pesa ikichomoka, he snitched on the fella by calling the police who came tore it up and arrested the guy
