A TAIWANESE woman charged earlier with stealing a $500 cash chip
from her employer Resorts World Sentosa is now accused of
misappropriating chips totalling $111,400.
Chiu Yee-Fong, 30, was a croupier at the casino when she
allegedly converted the $111,400 cash chips entrusted to her
between Sept 28 and Nov 7 for her own use.
She was originally charged three weeks ago with the theft, but
this has been amended to a criminal breach of trust.
The bespectacled woman, who wears a pony-tail, was found fit to
plead after being sent for psychiatric examination.
The prosecution asked for the case to be adjourned to complete
investigation.
Bail of $200,000 was offered. Chiu's next court date is Dec
13.
