In a Facebook post, the police asked if anyone has information about a woman who stole from the store on 18 August.

The poster shared on social media included CCTV snapshots of the casually dressed young woman caught in the act

While the police did not disclose exactly how many items were stolen from the Guardian outlet by the woman, one thing is being speculated based on their choice of photos.
