Betting Shop Robbers Jailed

Two robbers, who targetted betting-shops and threatened staff into handing over thousands of pounds, have been jailed.

Michael Okadigbo, 27, (pic.top) of Southgate Road, Islington received 4 years and Adisa Sabado, 21, (pic.bottom) of Church Road, Croydon received 20 months at Harrow Crown Court.

Okadigbo and Sabado robbed William Hill Bookmakers, Kilburn High Road, Kilburn on September 29, last year, threatening counter staff and taking £2,000 cash from the tills.

Earlier that month on September 7, Okadigbo and an accomplice – who police believe was Sabado – snatched over £2,750 from William Hill in Green Lanes, Palmers Green.

Detectives from the Flying Squad based at Finchley & Barking were able to indentify both men through CCTV.
