A pharmacy assistant has been jailed for three years and seven months for stealing £330,000 worth of diabetes-testing kits from his workplace. Abdul Nargoliya stole the products while working as a pharmacy assistant at a Lloydspharmacy counter inside a Sainsbury's supermarket in Fosse Park, Leicester where we was employed since 2012. The 30-year-old from Woodboy Street in Leicester was sentenced on Friday (May 26) after pleading guilty at Leicester Crown Court "to theft by an employee and concealing, transferring, converting criminal property". According to police an internal investigation launched at the pharmacy branch in July 2018 revealed that more than 22,000 test kits had been ordered since January 2017. Leicester Police said they identified Nargoliya as a suspect due to the time of the orders being placed matching up to his shift patterns. They arrested him in July 2018. Orders for the products were placed by telephone and CCTV footage showed Nargoliya handling them. It was noticed that during his shifts, the defendant would move the deliveries into a private consultation room and later leave with full carrier bags.

Coeliac UK has raised grave concerns about the decision by NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board (ICB) to withdraw gluten free prescriptions for people with a diagnosis of coeliac disease and its potential impact on their health. The charity highlighted the significant additional cost of gluten free staple substitute products, which poses a real challenge to maintaining the gluten free diet, the only treatment for the condition. Coeliac UK noted that 72 per cent of respondents to a recent public consultation disagreed with the ICB's proposal to stop gluten free prescribing, and said it is "deeply concerned" by the potential impact of the decision to proceed with removal of provision. The charity accused the ICB of making no meaningful effort to reduce the impact of this policy change for those on low incomes, despite the additional cost of gluten free food being highlighted by 58 per cent of those who disagreed with the proposal.
