By not asking permission before searching someones property or person, the person who carries out the search is guilty of what is called a trespass against a person.
Also if a security guard or store tec does stop someone before they have Exited the building, the person is only guilty of attempted theft (if they have anything that is). The way that the CPS are treating cases at present it may end up being NFA'd. (If it is their first offence or they are not a prolific offender).
