À propos de ce contenu audio
In April 1995, Australia’s richest man, Kerry Packer, reported that 285 kilograms of gold bullion had been stolen from a safe inside his Sydney office. It was the largest gold theft in Australian history — a brazen break-in that appeared to be the work of a master safecracker who slipped past 24-hour security without a trace.
But what if the robbery was never a robbery at all?
In this episode of Real Crime, Adam Shand reopens the cold case of “Packer’s Gold.” Three decades on, fresh evidence, retired insiders, and long-buried photographs raise explosive new questions about what really happened inside Packer’s inner sanctum. Was this an audacious underworld heist? An inside job fuelled by betrayal? Or an elaborate multi-million-dollar insurance scam designed to fail from the start?
Featuring interviews with notorious safe-breakers, confidential sources, and new forensic insights into the safe itself, this investigation pulls apart the accepted version of events — and examines whether one of Australia’s most powerful men may have staged the perfect crime.
If the gold was never stolen… who really benefited?
And after all these years, is the truth still locked away?
