A man whose luxury watch was stolen from his wrist while he ate at a central London restaurant says he wants to "leave the country" after an "appalling failure" by the Metropolitan Police to convict those responsible.
A Met Police spokesperson said the force was "sorry" to hear the victim felt let down and remained "regretful that we were not able to achieve justice in this case".Luca said that in June an officer suggested he should drop the case because, if it went to court, the suspect would learn his identity and could therefore endanger his life due to "potential retaliation".
The finance professional said the theft took place in the restaurant's "outdoor terrace" on Elystan Place at about 19:30 BST.Luca said he chased the suspects for about a mile, pursuing them down the King's Road and detaining one of them as he jumped onto a bus.He said the suspect failed to return for an interview and "vanished".
"A senior member of the robbery team has spoken with the victim and explained that we have reviewed the case and where we have found areas of learning," they said. The force added Luca was not given enough clear communication about the way the criminal justice system worked, and apologised for this.
