Basingstoke Magistrates Court (Image: -)
A BISHOP'S Waltham woman admitted handling stolen goods for the benefit of her partner.
Claire Harman, 41, pleaded guilty to having two angle grinders on July 6, valued at £108, stolen from Mole Country Stores.
Basingstoke Magistrates Court on Monday December 5 heard she did it for her partner Mark Hughes.
Harman, of Battery Hill, was fined £40 with a £16 victim surcharge. There was no order for costs because of her lack of means.
She also admitted committing an offence whilst subject to a conditional discharge imposed at East Hampshire Magistrates Court on July 28 2021 for stealing a £7.99 bag of bark from Park Place Farm Nursery at Titchfield Lane, Wickham. There were no separate penalties.
