Three men who posed as police officers before tying up a mum-of-three and stealing her puppy in a violent burglary have been jailed for a total of 35 years.
The victim, aged in her 30s, was leaving her flat in Putney, south London, when the men approached her wearing caps with 'Police' on the front and carrying batons on November 29 last year.
She was then grabbed by the neck in front of her three young children and forced back inside her home, where she was stamped on, punched and restrained with cable ties.
