đ What Happened in Antwerp?
In February 2003, while the world slept, an elite crew of Italian thieves â later dubbed The School of Turin â penetrated what was believed to be an impenetrable vault in Belgiumâs heavily guarded Antwerp Diamond Center.
When the dust settled, an estimated $100 million in diamonds, gold, and cash had vanished without a single alarm being tripped. No broken locks. No camera footage. No immediate suspects.
