Former SATS staff jailed for stealing S$98,000 worth of luxury watches
SINGAPORE: A former SATS staff was on Thursday jailed two months for stealing some S$98,000 worth of luxury watches at an airfreight terminal.
35-year-old Tiaggu Muniappan admitted to stealing six Frank Muller watches, one FP Journe watch and hairbands at SATS Airfreight Terminal 6 in late February this year.
The Malaysian, a mail cargo coordinator, was on duty at the time of the offence.
He noticed a white FedEx courier bag left behind in a small bin and intended to inform his duty officer about it.
But Tiaggu's greed got the better of him, and he opened the bag and stole the items.
For theft, he could have been jailed up to three years and fined. - CNA/nd
