Man in MH370 theft goes to jail alone


KUALA LUMPUR: The husband of the bank officer who stole from the bank accounts of four MH370 passengers went to prison alone after his wife skipped court due to diarrhoea.

Judge Norsharidah Awang sentenced mechanic Basheer Ahmad Maula Sahul Hameed, 34, to four years in prison and three strokes of the rotan – and gave him a tongue-lashing as well.
