A man in Tolyatti, Russia, was convicted for stealing watches worth 5 million rubles from his girlfriend. According to the reports, the man entered his girlfriend's apartment and stole the Cartier watches while she was in the hospital receiving treatment.
The thief then pawned the stolen items and received 47,000 rubles. He spent all the money on alcohol. The man was charged with a criminal offense and sentenced to 1-year correctional work. Additionally, he was ordered to pay over 5 million rubles in damages to his ex-girlfriend.
The couple had been living together for six years before their breakup in August 2023. After the breakup, the man broke into his ex-girlfriend's room and took a pearl bracelet worth 22,000 rubles, a ring worth 8,000 rubles, four knives, and their cat, Murzik.
This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of respecting others' property and resolving conflicts in a peaceful manner. Theft and burglary are criminal acts that can have serious consequences.
