An Australian army captain is the alleged mastermind of the theft and sale of eight defence force rocket launchers, police say.
The Australian Federal Police and New South Wales Police Force now say eight, not seven, anti-tank weapons were stolen from the military.
Police today arrested two men, aged 46 and 39, from Wattle Grove and Mount Annan, in Sydney’s southwest, and a 63-year-old woman from Tahmoor, south-west of Sydney, in simultaneous police raids about 6am (AEST) today.
NSW Police Deputy Commissioner Terry Collins said the 46-year-old man was an army captain who worked closely with munitions.
“We will allege that a captain in the defence force was a mastermind and a key player in regard to the theft and distribution of these (rocket launchers) to criminal elements in the community,” Mr Collins said.
“We will allege the captain had intimate knowledge and had worked very closely in the area where he had access to those type of weapons.”
