A ROMANIAN warehouse worker has become the seventh person to be charged in connection with Britain’s biggest ever cash robbery.

Raluca Antonela Millen appeared in Maidstone Magistrates’ Court on Saturday morning charged with conspiracy to kidnap a person and conspiring to rob the Securitas cash handling depot at Tonbridge in February.

Wearing a cream addidas puffa jacket and blue T-shirt, the blonde-haired 25-year-old made no reaction as prosecutor Paul Chamberlain read out details of the charges.

Ms Millen, who lives in Dudley Road, Tunbridge Wells, was assisted by a Romanian interpreter.

Of the 27 people arrested to date by police in the investigation, five men and two women have been charged in connection with the raid.

£20m of the £53m stolen from the Tonbridge Depot has so far been recovered.
