Civil Service College employee charged with theft given conditional warning for stealing wallet

On Sept 23, the court granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal for Milton Pang Jianqi's theft charge.

A man named Milton Pang Jianqin has been charged with theft for stealing a wallet in a Singapore pub. The wallet contained $550, including $150 in cash, two credit cards, and a debit card. Pang, who was 44 years old at the time and worked as a senior product specialist at the Civil Service College's Enterprise Technology Group, was arrested in July 2024.

He pleaded guilty and apologized, then made full restitution to the victim. As a result, Pang was granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal and received a two-year conditional warning for the theft. However, he can still face prosecution if new information or evidence comes to light.
