Woman detained for shoplifting

TANGERANG: Security guards at Hero supermarket in Cilegon,
Banten, caught a woman on Thursday who had hidden various
merchandise inside her handbag, including a 800-gram packet of
instant milk.

The security guards also found 17 bottles of baby oil, 24
medium-sized deodorant sticks, four bottles of body lotion, five
packs of face cream, and six cartons of tonic Irex inside the
bulky bag.

The woman, who identified herself as Kasturi Taswadi, 37, was
seen on Friday at the Cilegon Police subprecinct cell.

Police chief Adj. Comr. Raden Wahyu Irawan suspected that the
woman may be a member of a shoplifting syndicate. "We suspect she
was not alone in the operation," he said on Friday, adding that
the suspect had yet to be questioned. -- Antara
