Shoplifting is sometimes linked to mental health issues such as kleptomania, anxiety, depression or personality disorders. Sufferers may have an urge to steal items they don't need or can easily afford, experience increased tension before the theft and pleasure or relief during it. In Aug this year, an American CECA engineer, Kapadia Amatullah stole items from shops at Changi Airport while in transit. Her CECA husband who is a dentist, stole a Louis Vuitton card case holder and a bottle of Dior perfume, valued at over $750. A former engineer and repeat shoplifter, was found dead a day before her court appearance. She was facing multiple theft charges for stealing over $30,000 worth of items in 2015, including designer clothing.
