The Heist of the Century: On the sunny and seemingly ordinary Friday of January 13, two thousand and six, the bohemian martial-arts instructor, Fernando Araujo, and his
hand-picked four-member crew stormed into the branch of Banco Río in the affluent neighbourhood of Acassuso, Buenos Aires. As the thieves work fast, emptying dozens of
safety deposit boxes crammed with millions of dollars, precious jewellery, and heavy gold bullion bars, the chief negotiator, Miguel Sileo, and his armed-to-the-teeth men
encircle the silent two-storey building, in the aftermath of the bloody Villa Ramallo robbery.
