Lingerie thief caught; more than 1,000 undergarments seized

GEORGE TOWN–A bright red bra proved to be the undoing of a man with a fetish for female undergarments.

The man, who allegedly stole more than 1,000 pieces of undergarments, was caught red-handed by residents and the management of two condominium blocks in this capital city of Penang, putting an end to a year-long stealing spree.

The 32-year-old thief, who lived alone in a rented room , was spotted pilfering the red bra that was hung up by a condo committee member near the wet kitchen grill as bait.
