LIM Koon Yaw, 23, was facing a minimum of a year's jail and
caning for snatching a bag of lingerie from a woman in March.
Instead, the fast-food worker pleaded guilty to theft on Wednesday
and was fined $500.
A psychiatric report revealed that he had a fetish for women's
undergarments.
In the report dated July 4, Dr Jerome Goh of the Institute of
Mental Health stated that Lim had been suffering from the condition
since he was 12 years old.
He kept bras and panties in his room and would become sexually
aroused when imagining people wearing them.
Community Court Judge Soh Tze Bian decided that a fine was
appropriate as Lim could be considered a first offender. Although
he had been brought to court for housebreaking previously, Lim had
successfully completed a 1 1/2 year probation stint in 2006.
Lim paid the fine.
