Police have decided not to file charges against former MP Golriz Ghahraman over a recent alleged shoplifting incident.
The incident is alleged to have occurred at the Pak N Save in Royal Oak on October 12, 2024, and was reported to police for investigation electronically using the Auror platform, which allows retailers to report alleged instances of theft.
“The item taken was valued at less than $40,” police said in a statement on Thursday.
Police said any investigation considers the Solicitor-General’s Guidelines for Prosecution, including factors such as evidential sufficiency and a public interest test.
“In this case, police have considered the public interest test was not met as well as taking other factors into account,” police said.
“Given the subject of this complaint has not been charged with an offence, they are entitled to privacy and we are limited in further comment around a number of specifics.”
Ghahraman told Stuff, “I am pleased the police are not bringing charges and I can now move on.”
