Napping Malaysia Burglar. Napping inside the house he broke into, the Malaysia burglar was slapped with a five-year prison sentence. The court showed no mercy as it handed down the sentence on Wednesday.
Prosecutor Muhammad Ashraff Diah says the 35-year-old man broke into a house in southern Malaysia last week and spent the night sleeping there. The homeowner returned in the morning and called the authorities before the man woke up.
The unemployed man tried to run away when the police arrived. They caught him and recovered several hundred ringgit (dollars) he had taken from the house.
Muhammad Ashraff said Wednesday that the man pleaded guilty to a burglary charge this week.
