A shoplifter banned from every Sainsbury’s supermarket in the country succeeded in finding employment – working in a Sainsbury's supermarket. Vishal Patel was given the punishment for stealing alcohol last year. However he had been employed at the same store where he committed the offence. A statement from the firm said he had failed to inform them of his conviction; while Mr Patel explained: “All I wanted was a chance. I won’t ever steal again.”
