Police releases footage of largest ever crackdown on organised shoplifting gangs

The largest ever crackdown on organised shoplifting gangs has seen police recover thousands of stolen items and arrest 32 suspected crooks. Over two days officers raided more than 120 shops suspected of buying items stolen from major retailers and reselling them at discounted prices. Hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of items were seized, including branded food, make-up and electrical devices. Nine stores were served with closure notices. The 32 people were arrested for various offences, including handling stolen goods, drug offences and immigration violations. Most of those arrested have been bailed, the Met said today. The Daily Express's Stop The Shoplifters campaign is demanding tougher action after recorded more than 530,000 shoplifting offences in the year to March 2025, up 20% in a year. Retailers have described gangs marauding into shops, sweeping items off shelves, attacking and threatening staff and returning day after day. Almost 800 cases went unsolved every day last year and the cost to retailers tops £2.2bn annually.
