But her husband, in contrast, was a leading criminal who in 2008 was in a 20-strong gang who stole 62million Danish Kroner — £7million sterling — in one of Denmark’s biggest ever cash-in-transit robberies.He was caught and jailed for eight years, though most of the gang remain at large and almost all of the money remains unrecovered.

He confirmed that a lone gunman shot Beqiri “multiple times before fleeing on foot” as he arrived home from an outing with his wife and child at 9pm on Tuesday.
