American dentist and engineer wife taught harsh lesson after SHOPLIFTING during visit to strictest country on Earth
An American dentist and his engineer wife spent weeks behind bars after being caught red-handed stealing luxury items in notoriously strict Singapore. The pair, Kapadia Husain Zoher, 35, and Kapadia Amatullah, 30, were arrested on June 23 after stealing from designer shops at Changi Airport. Authorities said the couple, who are both US nationals, stole more than $750 of upmarket items from Louis Vuitton and Dior at the airport before trying to board their jet. They made it all the way to their seats on a flight set for Mumbai before airport police hauled them away. Cops said that CCTV from inside the airport captured the couple in the act, and both were swiftly prosecuted and subsequently pleaded guilty to theft. Zoher was handed an 18-day jail sentence and his wife was sentenced to a week behind bars for the brazen shoplifting. State Prosecuting Officer (SPO) Ng Chee Wee argued at their sentencing that Zoher 'had stolen out of greed. 'He had a habit of overspending, and he did not want to pay,' the prosecutor said. Authorities said the couple's shoplifting spree began around 5pm after they entered Changi Airport's terminal 1. They were seen on CCTV targeting a Louis Vuitton store first, where Zoher stole a credit card holder worth $600. The couple then moved to Terminal 3 around 5:40pm and went to Cosmetics & Perfumes by The Shilla, a designer store. Zoher then took a bottle of Dior Sauvage perfume worth around $160 and slipped it into his pocket, with prosecutors saying he had his wife act as a lookout.
