In a real-life plot twist that could rival any Hollywood heist movie, two daring criminals in England recently tried to turn the tables on a Ferrari owner, only to find themselves behind bars instead of behind the wheel. The dynamic duo, Mohammed Ali and Muhamed Juwara, hatched a plan to pose as serious Ferrari buyers, setting the stage for a crime that would soon capture headlines. Within a mere 48 hours, the long arm of the law caught up with Ali and Juwara, bringing their criminal escapade to an abrupt end. The investigation that followed uncovered a pattern, revealing that Ali had previously attempted a similar scheme just months earlier. Juwara, not exempt from accountability, received a nine-year sentence in a young offenders' institution for his involvement in the attempted robbery.
