Man beaten and bound in own home by robbers

A man was bound and beaten in his own home by robbers who stole cash and jewellery.


The homeowner, aged in his 50s, was attacked by two men in Dulwich, south London, in September.


One of them had a firearm which he tried to use but it did not work, leading police to believe it was an imitation.


The victim was hits on the head and his feet and wrists with tied with tape before being pushed into the downstairs toilet.


The thieves are believed to have fled with a large amount of cash, as well as electricals and jewellery.


The victim was eventually able to escape and alerted his neighbours, who called police


One of the suspects is described as being 'Middle Eastern European', of slight build, in his late teens or early 20s, with dark brown skin, black hair, a black beard and a thin pointed nose. He did not appear to speak a lot of English and was repeatedly heard to say: ?money, money, money?.


The second suspect is described as being an Asian man, possibly south-east Asian, of a stockier build, around 5ft 10in tall. He had short black hair and was wearing blue latex gloves.

Southwark police posted an appeal for witnesses on Twitter on 14 October.


I only know that via a post on my road's WhatsApp group.


It's possible that there were valid operational reasons for not publicising it before, but I don't know what they would be.


Does anybody know if they have caught the people involved?


Also, does anybody know how they got into the house?

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
