Police Constable Phillip Jones of GMP’s Rochdale District said: “This was a brazen burglary that deprived a family of a number of possessions of sentimental value, as well as a quantity of cash. 

“Footage from this burglary is very clear and although the men’s faces are covered, we’re confident that there will be people who recognise these men. 

“Pay attention to how these men walk and the clothes they are wearing. Is it someone you know? 

“We have also released an image of a man whose face isn’t covered. Again, this is a clear image and we would expect someone to recognise this individual. 

“If you do, or if you have any information that can assist our enquiries, then please get in touch as soon as possible.” 

Information can be left with police on 0161 856 8549 quoting incident number 2409 of 15/02/19 or the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
