An influencer has been revealed as the victim of a huge £10 mil jewellery heist in London.
On December 30 it was made public that a burglar snuck into a home in the second floor of a home in Primrose Hill, Camden earlier this month where they took £150,000 of Hermes Crocodile Kelly handbags as well as £15,000 in cash and £10.4m of bespoke jewellery. Police have ramped up efforts to find the man responsible.
Now the victim has been revealed as art collector Shafira Huang. She boasts an Instagram account with more than 13,000 followers and often shows off her glamorous lifestyle when she travels by private jet, according to MailOnline.
Her account has previously shown off some of the items which ended up being nicked. The suspect is described as a white man in his late 20s to 30s, of medium build. He covered his face but was wearing a dark hoodie, cargo pants and a grey baseball cap.

Detective Constable Paulo Roberts from the Central North Basic Command Unit, who is investigating the burglary, said: “This is a brazen offence, where the suspect has entered the property while armed with an unknown weapon and violated the sanctuary of the victims’ home. The suspect has stolen £10.4m worth of jewellery, much of which is sentimental and unique in its design, and therefore easily identifiable.
“We urge anyone who was in the area of Avenue Road, NW8, and saw anything suspicious to please come forward. Also, if you have seen this jewellery since, someone has offered to sell you it, or you have any further information, then please also contact the police or Crimestoppers anonymously.”
