Three men have appeared in court in connection with the Hatton Garden jewellery heist.

Terry Perkins, 67, of Heene Road, Enfield, Daniel Jones, 58, of Park Avenue, Enfield, and Hugh Doyle, 48, of Riverside Gardens, Enfield appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court yesterday morning.

The trio have been charged with conspiracy to steal along with Carl Wood, 58, of  Elderbeck Close, Cheshunt, John Collins, 74, of Blestoe Walk, Hoxton, William Lincoln, 59, of Winkley Street, Bethnal Green, 76-year-old Brian Reader, of Dartford Road, Dartford, and Paul Reader, 50, of the same address.

More than 200 police officers raided homes across Enfield, east London and Kent earlier this week resulting in the arrests.

A ninth man has been bailed pending further enquiries.

An estimated £200million worth of diamonds and money was taken from the underground vaults.

The eight man has been remanded in custody and will appear in court again on June 4.
