According to the farmer of the diary farm, "The gang wiped out all the cheese from the storage in a huge setback of six months' income."

The chairman of diary farmers organisation Theo Dekker said, "We will need better security for our cheeses from now on. This is not just a simple theft, it’s organised crime."
