'Supercar thief stole a £97,000 Rolls Royce that a Saudi Prince kept in a Mayfair garage after blagging the DVLA that he was the real owner'

A supercar thief stole a £97,000 Rolls Royce that a Saudi Prince kept in a Mayfair garage by fooling the DVLA into thinking he was the real owner, a court has heard. 

Mohammed Humza, 25, is said to have filed a V62 form to the DVLA claiming to own Sheikh Mohammed Alibrahim's Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe.

The prince claims only he and his chauffeur were allowed to get behind the wheel and says the driver inspected the car, which was kept in a garage in central London, every week.

Humza allegedly fooled the DVLA with the bogus V62 form and ordered new keys for the saloon.

According to charges he later sold it to Shaks Specialist Cars in Huddersfield for £27,500 with a Blue BMW 5 Series and a White Mercedes-Benz A Class as part of the deal.

Sheikh Alibrahim says he was unable to reply to the DVLA on whether the ownership had changed because he was abroad.

Humza also faces charges for telling the DVLA he was the lawful owner of a Porsche 911 belonging to Nicholas Cattelian, a Ferrari California belonging to Sara Duncan, and an Aston Martin DB9 belonging to Jake Urich.

He denies any wrongdoing and claims he had a 'legitimate right' to Sheikh Alibrahim's Rolls Royce.
