Burglar gets 96 months, two strokes

TAWAU: A 36-year-old local man was jailed for 96 months and ordered to be whipped twice by the Magistrate's Court here yesterday for burglary.

Nipar Vergiano pleaded guilty before Magistrate Puan Suhaila Selag to two charges under Section 457 of the Penal Code which carries a jail term up to 14 years and a fine and whipping if convicted.

The court ordered the accused to serve the sentence separately and undergo police observation for four years after the conviction.
