“These Were Armed And Ruthless Men” After Victoria Beckham
Sky News spoke with Stuart Kuttner, managing editor of the News of the World on the plot to snatch Victoria Beckham. “This was not just an embryonic idea,” Kuttner said. “These were armed and ruthless men. It was frighteningly far advanced.” He added, “It became clear during the weeks and months that this was a serious plot by some ruthless criminals. They had been up to the house and done recces and they [the reporters] had seen premises in London where rooms had been prepared to hold Victoria. They had a plan about how to get away with the money.”
