An Australian woman who stole a wallet from the duty free shop at Changi Airport about two months ago was jailed for a day and fined $1,200 on Wednesday.
Alexander Bratislava, 56, was at Terminal 3's departure transit hall on June 17 when she filched a $690 Salvatore Ferragamo wallet.
The court heard that she committed the offence while looking at the range of wallets and handbags on display at a shelf at the DFS Fashion Avenue store. She left the store without making any payment for the stolen wallet under her armpit. She then departed Singapore.
A sales assistant found the wallet missing about half an hour later and alerted the duty manager.
