A woman has been sentenced after admitting to stealing an iPhone and a purse in Watford.
Tsvetanka Hristova appeared in Thames Magistrates’ Court on February 8 after being charged with theft from the person.
It was alleged that the 28-year-old stole an iPhone, purse, two debit cards, and £300 in cash belonging to another woman in the town on October 1, 2022.

Having indicated a guilty plea during a previous appearance in Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court on January 11, she was sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid work over the course of a year.
Hristova, of Norbury Court Road, London, must also pay £60 in compensation, £85 in costs to the Crown Prosecution Service, and a £114 victim surcharge by March 7.
Her guilty plea was taken into account during sentencing.
Another charge of receiving stolen goods was withdrawn during the January appearance. This was for the same items.
