Malaysian man jailed for stealing panties: report
A Malaysian man was sentenced to 25 weeks in jail for stealing 80 pairs of women's panties, a media report said Saturday.
The Star newspaper said Zunaidi Ismail, a 34-year-old unemployed man from Borneo island, had admitted stealing the underwear from an apartment occupied by nursing students in three separate break-ins.
The underwear was worth a total of 280 ringgit (77 dollars), it said.
In mitigation, Zunaidi told the court he stole the underwear to resell at a secondhand clothing market
