Why the police waste time to arrest her if she is going to be fined only $1000.?

Perhaps that fine isn't enough to pay for bag?

Off-topic but the French embassy in Singapore has very nice architecture.

It's near the back door of the Botanic Gardens, not too far from Serene Centre.

 

[Leongsam]

Where, in the report, does it say anything about being "high class"? She could be from a trailer park.:p

 

[laksaboy]

All the high-class, 'romantic' thieves come from Paris and Barcelona.

 

[Rogue Trader]

She's French mah... must be high class!

Most likely a verbal warning. Most jialak a fine under section 379 - theft. Unlikely will be theft in dwelling under section 380.

The French Embassy will dig her out from trouble anyway.
