I never thought anyone would be aprehended or any of the proceeds of the crime ever found....looks like I'm wrong.

Detectives hunting the gang behind the Hatton Garden safety deposit raid have arrested seven suspects.
The contents of 56 safe deposit boxes were taken during the raid in London's jewellery district over Easter weekend.
Twelve addresses in the London and Kent area were raided by about 200 police officers on Tuesday morning.
Seven men were arrested - aged between 48 and 76 - and a number of high-value items were recovered, police said. Searches of the houses are ongoing.

The police should have done their duty in the first place and not ignore the alarm going off as reported on the news.

Agreed, they have apologized publicly and fortunately for them these arrests and the recovery of much that was thought to have been taken gives a little recompense.

They got the train robbers eventually, heck, even the Krays were busted in the end, and they were tough nuts to crack.

The main question is how much of the stolen items will be recovered, if any.
