Retailers to fund new police operation to crack down on crime
Retailers including John Lewis, Sainsbury’s and Tesco have agreed to fund a new police operation, Project Pegasus, to crack down on shoplifting in stores.

The project will allow them to run CCTV images of shoplifting offences provided by retailers through the Police National Database.
