A Vietnamese national was yesterday jailed for four weeks for theft and fraudulent possession of items that were not his.

Pham Le Tuan Kiet, 24, had earlier been found guilty of having with him a cellphone and two laptop computers, which he could not account for satisfactorily in October last year, when he was arrested.

When asked to operate the laptops, the then final-year National University of Singapore chemical engineering undergraduate claimed he could not do so because they were protected by passwords which he had forgotten.

Pham, who has a theft conviction, pleaded guilty yesterday to stealing a $15 polo shirt that same month from a fellow undergraduate. Another theft charge was taken into consideration.

A VIETNAMESE national was packed off to jail for four weeks on Thursday after he was found guilty of fraudulently having stolen property.

Pham Le Tuan Kiet, 24, was convicted after a trial of having a $150 cellphone at National University of Singapore, Kent Ridge Crescent, on Oct 21 last year.

When police arrested him at the university, he could not explain satisfactorily how he got the item.

Pham, then a final-year chemical engineering student, also pleaded guilty on Thursday to stealing an undergraduate's polo shirt worth $15 from the corridor of Block 5, Raffles Hall, NUS, on Oct 10 last year.

Pham, who has a theft conviction, had another theft charge considered during his sentencing by District Judge Liew Thiam Leng.
