The court was told that the act was committed on October 8th, 2017.
Unrepresented by legal counsel, Mohammed casually told Magistrate Daly that view while he was at the medical facility, he noticed parts of the unit hanging in full view, and accordingly he took it.
Police Prosecutor Sanj Singh revealed that Mohammed was arrested after he was observed by security at the hospital removing the unit.
Mohammed was previously jailed for stealing a gold chain and diamond ring. As such, the six months’ sentence was handed down to him.
