Not every shoplifting is the work of a professional thief.
As Viktor Kostyuchenko, the head of the security service of one of the shopping centers, said, it is impossible to predict the number of incidents: sometimes the security has to be called several times a day.
But not every alarm sign means theft. There are cases where buyers accidentally forget to pay for an item or commit other violations. Therefore, experts analyze each situation separately, including with the help of video surveillance.
The extent of the problem is shown by Ha'bol Gomel data: since the beginning of the year, police have raided commercial sites more than 6,000 times. As a result, more than 2.9 thousand administrative offenses were suppressed, and more than 70 criminal cases were opened for the most serious facts.
Special attention is paid to small shops selling alcoholic beverages.
