Coventry City Council said a young volunteer was sent into the shop fitted out with a hidden camera and asked for some “cheap” cigarettes.
The shop assistant took a packet of illegal cigarettes from an area between a refrigerator and a display of crisps and sold them for £3 without asking for proof of age.
