Narinder Kaur Post Sentencing

A woman who conned retailers and other businesses out of thousands of pounds worth of cash has been sentenced.
Narinder Kaur, formally known as Nina Tiara, of Chosen Hill in Cleverton, Wiltshire was today (Tuesday 30 July) sentenced at Gloucestershire Crown Court to ten years in prison.
The 54-year-old was previously found guilty of 26 counts of fraud, money laundering and perverting the course of justice on Friday 10 March 2023.
Narinder Kaur travelled extensively across the country to steal from well-known high street stores and then dishonestly claimed refunds on those items. Between July 2015 and September 2019, it is estimated Kaur netted around £2000 worth of refunds per week, equating to over half a million pounds in fraudulent refunds and stolen goods. Knowing that she was under investigation for these offences, she then embarked upon a scheme to defraud other businesses using the dishonestly obtained credit card details of members of the public.
Fraud investigator, Steve Tristram, from West Mercia Police’s Economic Crime Unit, said: “This sentence today sends out a clear message that West Mercia Police will deal seriously with prolific fraudsters. Kaur is a calculated individual who committed offences across the country, dishonestly claiming refunds on items she had stolen. She showed no remorse of her actions and even thought she would get away with submitting false documents to the court with the intention of perverting the course of justice.
“West Mercia Police took ownership of the investigation into Narinder Kaur in 2018. Working with National Business Crime Solution, an organisation representing retailers, and other police forces as a multi-agency approach, we were able to investigate further into her criminal activity and found fraudulent activity in her bank accounts which subsequently brought her to justice.”
