http://www.channelnewsasia.com/mobil...r/2133180.html News Singapore SMU student jailed for stealing S$6,300 worth of casino chips By Vanessa Paige Chelvan POSTED: 17 Sep 2015 19:27 Gaming chips. (Photo: AFP) A A SINGAPORE: A South Korean student has been sentenced to 6 weeks’ jail, after pleading guilty to 27 counts of theft of casino chips from the Marina Bay Sands (MBS) Casino in October last year. You Hyeon Ho, 22, had another 245 charges taken into consideration in his sentencing. He S$6,300 worth of chips from several patrons of MBS Casino over one month. CCTV footage captured You stealing casino chips at the Sic-Bo tables by either shifting or removing other patrons’ wagers from the betting boxes just before the results of a game. If patrons noticed their chips were missing, You would return them their chips and claim that he had mistaken them for his own. He was caught after shifting a chip belonging to another patron, resulting in the latter losing the game. The casino’s surveillance team was alerted who referred the matter to police. In court on Thursday, You’s lawyer, Jonathan Wong told the court that his client’s offences were “completely out of character”, noting that he had “immense potential” and a track record of good grades over the past decade he has lived here. However, just prior to his offences, You experienced “enormous mental pressure and emotional instability” due to the “sudden and severe breakdown of his family’s finances” after his father’s bankruptcy, Mr Wong told the court. You’s family, including his parents and younger sister, were forced to leave Singapore abruptly he said, leaving him and his younger brother, a first-year student at the National University of Singapore, to live on their own for the first time in their lives. An assessment of You by psychiatrist Dr Kenneth Koh at the Institute of Mental Health found that he had been suffering from depression at the time of the offences and that led to errors of judgement. In sentencing, District Judge Lim Tse Haw said that You had had displayed “persistent offending behaviour” with his stealing spree. But he took in account You's youth and the fact that he is a first-time offender.* - CNA/vc YOU MAY ALSO LIKE 81% of Singapore Retirees Have Been Unable to Realise at Least One of Their Dreams.
