[Ahtong]

 

A man who was charged for the murder of a woman in a flat in Taman Jurong has been further charged with 15 counts of theft.

 

Lim Wee Thong, 46, used two ATM cards that belonged to 50-year-old Ms Loh Nyuk Moi to withdraw cash of $14,500 from her bank account a total of 15 times over a period of three days.

 

Lim, who is a junior prison officer, is charged with Ms Loh's murder. He is suspected to have stabbed her in her vacant flat at Yung Ping Road.

 

Her body was found lying in a pool of blood with four stab wounds.

 

According to a witness, he had been seen holding hands with Ms Loh before the murder, and it is believed they were dating.

 

According to court documents, he had killed her on 13 February at 10.27am and began making the first of his withdrawals at 5.11pm on the same day, heading to Taman Jurong Shopping Centre first to do so.

 

Between 13 and 17 February, he continued on his thieving sprees using Ms Loh's ATM cards at various locations including Jurong West Ave 1, Block 502, Tampines CPF Building, Tampines St 21, Block 201B and a 7-11 outlet at Bedok Shopping Centre.

 

Lim will be sent to Changi Prison Hospital for psychiatric observation. His case will be mentioned again on March 25.

Nowadays criminal cases are very unpredictable.

 

- Hit cyclist can say car got good soundproofing

- Instigator of corruption case gets fine, accomplice gets jail

- Can stab cabby 5 times with no intention to kill

- Murder plus steal money is p-case

 

So many twists and turns ... more exciting than watching movie
