Boy, 12, accused of Claridge’s burglary


The boy is said to have carried out raids on Claridge’s in Mayfair, the Four Seasons in Park Lane and The Millennium Hotel in Knightsbridge.

He faces allegations of burgling BBC Television Center in White City and is also said to have targeted the offices of retailer The White Company and media agency Publicis within the complex.

Other alleged targets include the Corinthia Hotel in Whitehall.

The boy appeared in court on Monday alongside his 13-year-old brother, who is accused of involvement in three of the burglaries.

Due to their age, the siblings from west London stood in front of the dock with their mother alongside.

The court heard a co-defendant, 19-year-old Shane McCarthy, was also due to appear but claimed he was attending a funeral in Wales. The judge adjourned the hearing until tomorrow.
