Chinese Man Charged With Stealing $23,000 In Cash From Passengers On A Flight To Singapore

One Chinese man has been charged with three counts of theft after Singapore officials uncovered that he stole $23,000 in cash from the luggage of three passengers on their Scoot flight to Singapore, Channel News Asia reports. Hong Kong officials have previously warned of a spike in thefts on flights in the region, and this is yet another example.

On a December 16 flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Changi Airport, 52-year-old Zhang Ziuqiang allegedly stole thousands of dollars from the bags of his fellow travelers. He managed to nab a massive bulk of those funds — $21,000 in cash, or S$50 and 510 million Vietnamese dong, per the charge sheets viewed by CNA.
