    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Muslim householders are being targeted by gold thieves while they visit relatives or attend prayers during Ramadan, police have warned.

    GMP had released CCTV of three masked men who broke into a house in Rochdale, ransacking rooms looking for gold.

    The force has set up a burglary unit in Rochdale to combat gold thefts and has visited Muslim communities to warn of the problem.

    PC Mohammed Latif said thieves were targeting households decorated for Ramadan and watched properties to see when residents left for evening prayers.

    Officers advised homeowners to ensure doors and windows were locked, lights left on and any gold stored in a safe or away from the family home.

    Ash Mahmood, 48, a pharmacy worker in Rochdale, said the police visits and increased patrols were important because Ramadan could be “a worrying time of the year”.
