A story in the Times suggests there is a limit to the looting UK forces are prepared to tolerate in the southern city of Basra.

It reports that six soldiers from the Black Watch were told of an attempt to rob a bank.

One of the soldiers says: "We sledgehammered the doors open, threw in two grenades, and arrested three men who were trying to get into the safe with a blowtorch.

"It was exciting stuff. More like the Sweeney than the army."
