Hello all,
I`m new to this so please bare with me..
I recently had a Hypo ,
which is severe low blood sugar that Diabetics sometimes get. It can result in drunk like or irrational behaviour.. back to the story,
I was in Tesco doing my shop when this happened,
I walked out without paying..
I`m not a shoplifter but I did never the less walk out without paying..
When I came too I was in a room at the rear of the store being guarded by a security guard..
I asked why I was there as I had no memory of the prior 45 minutes..
I was informed I was a thief and they was waiting for the Police to arrive..
At some point someone had given me a mars bar so that was why I had come back from the brink.
The police said there would be NO charges and let me leave the store..
Today however I get a letter from a solicitors saying I owe Tesco £125 .
.. Civil recovery..
should I pay ?
do I have to pay ?
