Wow and Hmmm
The security TV footage is very convincing but was it them? King Power say their staff had facial recognition from the TV footage but they did not of the female suspect from what I could see, just the top of her head. The staff did not witness the theft but instead noticed the purse was missing and then alerted security who examined the CCTV recording. When they found who they thought were the couple, they say they were wearing different clothes! Then they say the man went to the toilet and the purse was found in the litter bin so as to say he realized they were being followed and that he had the purse, not her? OK, I accept their are some weird people feigning respectable citizens in the world, more than possibly we can imagine, but something does not seem right to me. I guess my questions are; a) the guy in the CCTV footage is clearly identifiable - is it the British tourist? and b) is the CCTV date and time stamped so as to be able to determine if it is genuine?
Maybe I am wrong, but for two supposedly respectable travellers to plan the theft of a purse, then change clothes, then switch who has the purse; OK, maybe it is possible! I understand some people steel for the thrill / sake of it (weirdos). Maybe this was like the Great Train Robbery for them and they went through this entire elaborate process after. So is the guy in the video the British tourist? If anyone finds substantive response to that anyway, I'm hooked, let me know!
