Tesco offers shoplifter a job


Radzuan: He was not a regular thief.

BUKIT MERTAJAM: A father of three was caught shoplifting at a hypermarket here, but instead of being punished, he has been offered a job there – and money to help him out.

The 31-year-old man, who declined to be named, said he was thankful to be given a second chance and a job instead of being handed over to the police after last Wednesday’s incident.
