A pharmacist so fed up with shoplifters has put up ‘wall of shame’ in his shop in a bid to deter would-be thieves. Not knowing names, he's simply nicknamed them by what they allegedly stole, including the likes of 'The Lynx Thief' and 'Nivea Man'.

Whasuf Farooq, manager of Pak Pharmacy in Saltley, Birmingham, has installed a ‘wall of shame’ Whasuf Farooq, manager of Pak Pharmacy, has publicly shamed more than 16 people following a surge in crime at his shop in Saltley,Not knowing their real names, Mr Farooq gave them nicknames as to what they allegedly stole, including ‘The Lynx Thief’ and ‘Nivea Man’.Mr Farooq’s idea came after he said the police failed to investigate the stealing, despite having CCTV evidence.

Another caption says: ‘Mr Rad the man stole all the Lynx, hope he buys himself new trainers #whatarethose.’
