Thieves broke into FIFA's temporary HQ in Johannesburg and made off with replica trophies...

Police in Johannesburg have confirmed replica World Cup trophies have been stolen from FIFA's temporary headquarters.

National police commissioner Bheki Cele said: "We knew that there was a theft and we are investigating."

La Repubblica claims the trophies were replicas of the cup that will take centre stage at the Soccer City final in Johannesburg on July 11.

As well as the trophies, sports equipment was also lifted by the thieves.

The police also confirmed that 316 people, 207 of South African origin, have been arrested for World Cup-related crimes since the start of the tournament.

Source from times:
“Yes we know there was burglary there. We are looking into it,” Cele told a national press club briefing in Pretoria.
He said seven trophy replicas and two jerseys had been taken during the incident which led police to believe that the crime was perpetrated by people familiar with the offices.

“There was no forced entry,” added police spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Eugene Opperman.
Police said the incident took place between June 22 and 25.

Four Adidas bags also disappeared from the Fifa headquarters.

However, a Fifa spokesman denied there was ever a burglary at their headquarters.

“I am not aware of that... until yesterday night there is nothing that we are aware of,” said Wolfgang Eichlerat at a media briefing at Soccer City on Tuesday morning.

Cele said since the start of the World Cup 316 people had been arrested, 207 of them South Africans, for tournament related crime.

He said 109 of those arrests were of foreign nationals with Ethiopians topping the list at 11.

They were followed by Algerians (nine), UK citizens (eight), six people each from Mozambique, Zimbabwe, America and Pakistan, five people from Argentina and four Slovakians.
“It’s the United Nations of crime,” he quipped to much laughter.

Cele said 90 percent of the arrests had been in connection with theft and by far the majority of these cases could be attributed to negligence on the part of the lawful owner.
This was as cellphones and laptops had been left unattended and then stolen.
He said police were also increasing their vigilance outside the stadiums as to date 29 cases of unauthorised ticket scalping had been reported.

“Thirty three persons have been arrested in these cases of which 14 are South African and 19 are citizens of other countries,” he said.
