Sorry, typo error. It is Chun Chee, not Chun Seng. 
Public shaming: Underwear thief forced to walk around the block wearing the bras he stole

A man who allegedly made a habit of stealing women’s underwear from washing lines has been on the receiving end of some ironic mob justice.
After Chan Chun Chee was caught red handed by the women whose underwear had gone missing, they forced him to wear one of the pilfered bras and made him walk around the block in a classic example of public shaming.
Residents of the block of flats in Singapore first became aware of the kinky thief when items of clothing being left out to dry started going missing, sometimes even from inside their apartments.
Local man Teo Goh, 56, said: ‘We realised he was targeting windows where he knew women lived and knew were open, so we decided to teach him a lesson and publicly humiliate him.’
They sprung a trap by getting one of the womenin the block to leave some underwear in plain sight near an open window.
The group then waited for the thief to make his move, before pouncing on him.
After ‘frog marching’ the culprit around the block in his new outfit and forcing him to promise never to steal from them again, the vigilante group called the police to have him arrested.
A police spokesman said: ‘We don’t condone vigilante activity but in this case it seems to have turned out OK.’
Chee now faces three years jail for breaking and entry and theft (plus these embarrassing photos will probably haunt him forever).
