Sowerbutt's Alibi

"Jimmy Sorbay always maintained he had an alibi for the night early in 1949 when Viscount Bearsted's house in Piccadilly was knocked off," the retired writer for the East London Pioneer, who still has the notebook from his early 1960s interview with Sowerbutt, said. "Whether he was involved, I can't say. But the stoppers came to see him about it. It was a big robbery. The heirlooms taken were said to be worth more than £20,000. The viscount was a war hero from the first lot and a bigwig with the Shell oil company."
