Police foil Sydney hotel robbery plot FOUR men will face court charged over the armed robbery of a Sydney hotel three months ago - and an alleged plot to rob it again. On July 14, two men armed with knives and a hammer entered the hotel at Potts Point, bound the wrists of an employee and fled with cash. On Monday two brothers, aged 27 and 28, were arrested in a car at Kings Cross and a search of the vehicle allegedly netted balaclavas, two tomahawks and other items. A 24-year-old man was arrested in a car at Double Bay a short time later, and his brother, 21, was arrested at Liverpool. The three older men were charged with armed robbery offences, including deprivation of liberty, in relation to the July robbery. They were also charged with conspiracy to commit armed robbery and refused bail to appear at Central Local Court on Tuesday. The 21-year-old was charged with being an accessory before the fact to the July armed robbery, and was also charged with conspiracy to commit armed robbery. He was refused bail to appear at Liverpool Local Court on Tuesday. Searches of homes at Greenacre and Liverpool allegedly found tens of thousands of dollars in cash, steroids, an extendable baton, a balaclava and other items.
