A local man was sentenced to six months’ jail by the Magistrate’s Court yesterday after he pleaded guilty of committing theft.
According to the statement, Markus anak Minggat, 29, stole $280 cash, a car DVD player and equalizer, a car key and pair of shoes from a house at Kampong Sungai Kuru in Lumut 8pm on May 8, 2017.
DPP Dr Mohd Hussin Ali bin Idris further informed Chief Magistrate Muhammed Faisal bin Pehin Dato Haji Kefli that while walking to a friend’s place, the defendant saw the house and suddenly choose to commit the offense.
He opened the door of a car in the garage and took the items. He then took the cash from another car and a pair of shoes from the house before leaving.
Little that he realise that he had left in the first car his bag, which contained his identity card and a court bail bond related to a criminal case. This led to the defendant’s arrest after the house owner reported the matter to the police.
