News | Richard Gurner | Published: 14:00, Friday August 23rd, 2013.

Police would like to speak to these two men (pictured above) in connection with the theft of a vehicle from outside the Spar Store, in Mill Road, Caerphilly town.

The theft took place at approximately 9.30pm on Saturday August 3. The vehicle, a blue Vauxhall Zafira, registration number CP53 JXY, was parked outside the store at the time of the theft. Anyone with information should call Gwent Police on 101 and quote log number 566 3/8/13

    Yet another crime happens in Caerphilly. I should be elected as the Home Secretary. I would come down on all of these criminals so hard, and my policies regarding them would be so draconian that they would be scared of the police and jail.

    Crime happens in Caerphilly all the time.

    Elected as Home Secretary? Not a chance, there has not been a hang em flog em one for over fifty years, and there wont be one aging, so that`s another job you wont get Dean.

    You would make these people who borrowed this car scared of the police and Jail? No chance of that either Dean, do you honestly think there are people who join the police force to `scare` the public into legal submission?, Russia, china, some part of the deep south of America, other banana republics. You are not Zimbabwean and a supporter of

    Robert Mugabe by any chance are you?. And, as for the jail issues, i.e. `so draconian that inmates would be `scared` of it`, you can forget that one too, they are sent there AS punishment, not FOR punishment, and for the record that `policy` was enacted over a hundred years ago so catch up boy for goodness sake.

    I know what the modern world is like Jokio. I would campaign to change it though. I would make the jail a place for punishment not a punishment in itself. Obviously they wouldn't be tortured but they would be forced to do hard, manual Labour for the bare minimum amount of food to stay alive. Jails would become an unpaid version of the workhouse.

    I know these two! Craig Davis is the guy in the white jumper the other guy is called Ashley, not sure of his surname…. Both are from Pen-yr-Heol.

    Dean, whilst I have great empathy with your draconian ideals, it can be seen to be a failure. The death sentence in the U S has done absolutely nothing to deter murders, sadly.

    I beg to differ. Per capita murder rates in some states with the death penalty are lower than they are in Britain. Those states have guns too which will increase murder rates.

    Jeff, check the statistics first!

    For the last 10 years, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Hawaii all have LESS murders per 100,000 people than England and Wales. It's well documented too.

    Dean, you have a problem. In many instances your comments on this website have proven to be highly exaggerated. The homicide rate in the US is far higher than that in countries where there is no death sentence. A few States in the US offer an exception but, overall, there is stark evidence that the death penalty is not only ineffective, it also causes the execution of innocent people.
