Adrian Goldberg investigates the rise in fuel crime as the price of petrol and diesel reaches a high at the pump.

Nearly two-thirds of hauliers say they've had fuel stolen from their lorries or from tanks in their storage yards in the past year, according to an industry questionnaire. Fewer than half of the affected trucking firms reported the thefts to the police - some feeling fuel crime gets a low priority. Garage owners are reporting an increase in the number of motorists who fill up and drive off without paying. And organised crime is involved in fuel racketeering - investigators from customs and revenue are busting more diesel laundering plants, where the dye put in duty-exempt agricultural diesel is washed out - so it can be passed off as diesel for general use. The loss in duty is believed to cost the public purse about 拢800 million a year.
