'Charlie's Angels' girl gang member who used disguises to carry out elaborate distraction #thefts is finally jailed after two years on the run

After two years on the run the law has finally caught up with a member of an all-girl gang of pickpockets who used 'Charlie's Angels' disguises to carry out a complicated sting in a Primark store.
Saida Isovic, 24, was one of a trio who targeted an unsuspecting shopper to steal £2,000 from the victim's handbag after she withdrew the money from a bank.
CCTV footage showed how the three women, originally from Bosnia, changed their appearances in a bid to disguise themselves and stop the victim from realising she was being followed.
The video captured the gang, who had been working together for almost a decade, walking into the busy store dressed in colourful headscarves and long clothing.
But they soon ditched those clothes to reveal long hair and trousers as they followed their target, then changing into coats and tying up their hair. Two of them also donned new headscarves before the gang struck.
The group, dubbed Charlie's Angels after the glamorous trio of private detectives who doubled as masters of disguise in the 1970s TV series, had travelled from their homes in the Birmingham area to target shoppers in Derby.

One of the trio, 23-year-old Ivana Ramic, was last year convicted of the theft in October 2013 and jailed for 11 months.

Her two co-accused were reported to have fled the country before they were brought to justice.
But last week, Isovic was handed a community order for a similar distraction theft in London. That court appearance alerted the authorities of an outstanding warrant for the theft in Derby more than two years ago.

She was brought to Derby Crown Court where she pleaded guilty to the previous theft and was sent to prison.
Jailing her for nine months, Judge John Burgess said: 'You have given a number of reasons why you failed to attend, the latest being that you just forgot the date.
