A Filipino national was handed a fine of B$500, or two weeks of imprisonment in default of payment, by the Magistrate's Court yesterday for misappropriation of property.
The defendant, Renante Espanol Bonalos, 26, is employed as a cleaner under a local company posted at a branch of the Baiduri Bank in Supa Save Beribi.
DPP Md QamarulAffyian bin Abdul Rahman further informed Senior Magistrate Haji Nabil Daraina bin Pehin Dato Ustaz Haji Badaruddin that Renante was emptying a bin at the bank at 6 pm on August 23, when he came across a wallet and hid it near a communal rubbish bin outside the building.
On August 26, he recovered the wallet from its hiding-place and searched inside, finding cash and some personal effects.
He then took it home and hid it on top of an air-conditioning unit in his bedroom, but his actions were captured on CCTV camera and duly exposed when the wallet's owner lodged a police report on the missing item.
