Woman stole from sis and boyfriend
By Elena Chong
A WOMAN was jailed for 14 months on Thursday for cheating and theft.
Siti Rosdiana Rosdi, 29, unemployed, had pleaded guilty to cheating a friend, Mr Mohamed Zain Abdul Wahab, 55, of $1,100 and $1,400 last Aug 4 and 6 respectively.
She had deceived him into believing that her father had financial difficulties and was warded in hospital when she knew it was false.
The victim found out the truth on Aug 24 when he managed to contact her father.
She also admitted to stealing a laptop and a USB broadband totalling $688 from her elder sister, Rosdiawaty, 34, at their Yishun Ring Road home on June 19 last year.
About three years ago, while she was staying at the Chai Chee flat of her then boyfriend, Mr Amir Abu Samah, now 39, she stole $5,500 from him.
Four other charges of cheating, criminal breach of trust and theft were considered during her sentencing.
She has previous convictions for property-related offences in 2001 and 2007.
