Three logistics workers were jailed yesterday over the theft of computer chips worth more than $2 million.
The scheme, executed on four occasions last year, involved removing and pasting clearance labels onto cartons of goods earmarked to be stolen.
This allowed the loot, none of which was recovered, to be driven out of the Changi Airfreight Centre without arousing suspicion.
Visvanathan Munusamy, 33, and brothers Janagarajan Allagandran, 19, and Devakumar Allagandran Chettiar, 18, were each sentenced to jail terms of between 20 months and a week, and 32 months.
