A prolific burglar who stole more than £100,000 worth of jewellery from the London hotel suite of former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been jailed.
Jamie Filan, 33, who is believed to be an Arsenal fan, took items including a Cartier pendant, earrings and a ring worth £51,450 that Mourinho had given to his wife, Matilde.She was staying in the suite at the five-star Wyndham Grand Hotel along with their 16-year-old daughter, Tita. Mother and daughter were out shopping at the time of the raid, while Mourinho was away on business.
Filan used a service lift to get into the penthouse suite, bypassing tight security. His £106,600 haul also included a Bulgari white gold watch and earrings worth £30,450, a £14,900 Van Cleef and Arpels gold bracelet and a Tiffany 18ct white gold diamond cross pendant, worth £2,450.He also stole an iPad worth £500, an Apple Macbook Pro valued at £1,829, and an Ermenegildo Zegna coat, worth £1,850.
He packed the goods in a Louis Vuitton suitcase belonging to the Mourinho family, before ‘coolly’ asking the hotel concierge to book him a taxi and strolling out.It is believed Filan deliberately targeted Mourinho’s suite at the hotel in Chelsea. The soccer boss is currently at Real Madrid, but he is strongly tipped to be about to return to the London club.
