Sisters to repay money after stealing from Gatwick duty free

Two Crawley sisters have been ordered to pay back nearly £220,000 after stealing items from duty free at Gatwick Airport.

Laura and Georgina Epitropou, both from Crawley, were each jailed for two and a half years after being sentenced in September 2024.

The Epitropous were arrested boarding a flight from Belfast to Gatwick carrying £2,000 in stolen items in their suitcase.

The Crown Prosecution Service said bank records revealed the sisters had made £40,000 in 10 months.
