In the video, a man can be seen tampering with the electric gate — which he quickly manages to open.
Another man then enters the garden and attempts to disable a CCTV camera in the corner of the property.
He is followed by two men, one of whom covers his face with a gloved hand.
One of the men then moves the camera from its position.
