A woman who made more than half a million pounds by travelling throughout England and Wales shoplifting and then claiming refunds on the stolen goods has been jailed for 10 years.

Narinder Kaur, 54, made more than 1,000 raids on high street stores over a four-year period. When police searched her home in a Wiltshire village they found £150,000 in cash, as well as stolen goods she had not yet returned.
