A new type of criminal, labelled a ''hugger-mugger", has been targeting revellers in London's West End.
The crime involves groups of pickpockets waiting outside pubs and clubs ready to hug a partygoer as they leave the building, stealing their wallets and mobile phones.
The "hugger-mugger" pretends to be drunk, approaches a drunk reveller, embraces him as a long lost friend and picks his pocket.
