Sorry to hear about your loss. Unfortunately, these communal bike storage areas are anything but secure; they're often badly designed, sometimes visible from the street, locks can be overridden in some way, and they are often badly managed, e.g. in that keys aren't kept track of properly as people move in and out. How did one guy nick 20 bikes? Did he have a van outside that he just chucked them into? And weren't they locked in the bike store?
Hope the fairly clear picture helps persuade the police to take this case on fully.

Hi everyone. Sorry to sign up just to share this - but around 20 bikes were stolen from ‘secure’ bike stores in a development in Hackney Wick last night (my Fuji Sportif included). At that scale I expect they’re long gone, but just in case, here’s a photo and a CCTV mugshot of the guy.
