New photo Police branded ‘stupid’ for blurring face of pickpocket in released CCTV footage

COPS have been branded “stupid” for posting CCTV of an OAP being pickpocketed with the thief’s face blurred.

Luilian Vinatoru, 48, is seen lifting the elderly man’s wallet from his left pocket outside a Waitrose store.

Baffled viewers could not understand why the criminal’s identity was concealed

He was fined £280 plus £125 in costs and compensation over last month’s theft in West Byfleet.

Surrey Police posted the video on social media as a warning to the public.

But Ricky Stedman asked: “Why the f*** you hiding face! Stupid isn’t it?”

Linda Goodey said: “What right does he have to not be recognised?”

Jennifer Riordan put: “Show and shame them! Stick their faces on posters in the area.”

The force said it did not identify criminals unless they were jailed for more than a year, or if there was a significant threat to public safety.

It added: “We feel the video is more powerful without showing his face, as it shows how easily this crime can happen.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
