One of the key masterminds behind Canada’s largest gold heist — the brazen theft of $22.5 million in gold and cash from Toronto’s Pearson airport three years ago — has been sentenced to just four years behind bars.

Less credit for pre-sentence custody, the relieved Arsalan Chaudhary has just 42 months left to serve. But that’s not the entirety of his sentence: Ontario Court Justice Shannon McPherson ordered the 44-year-old to pay back $22 million to Brinks — a restitution order that will stand for 40 years.

Scourge of the female Fagins

After furious M&S chief demands that Labour get to grips with Britain’s High St raiders, IAN GALLAGHER exposes the gangs cynically using little girls to fleece designer stores

The little girl was probably no more than seven but already canny enough to know the value of the pink Chanel handbag taking centre stage in a boutique in Surrey.

Security footage captures her eyeing the ‘pre-loved’ £6,000 bag like a coveted toy, then alerting a woman wearing a flowery headscarf who is feigning interest in dresses.

Neither can believe their luck. Unlike the other handbags, this bag is unencumbered by a security tag and cable.
