A 55-year-old Filipina maid pleaded guilty in the Eastern Magistrates’ Court on April 18 to one count of theft and was fined HK$2,000.
Rosemarie Sano, a widow and mother of six, was arrested after being caught with goods in her backpack at the Fusion supermarket in Cyberport of Pokfulam on Hong Kong Island on March 27, sunwebhk.com reported.
The items she stole included a pack of sushi, a box of body lotion, four oranges, a pack of mushrooms, two eggplants, six avocados, a pack of vegetables, two packs of underwear and two packs of socks which were worth a total of more than HK$700.
The manager called police after intercepting her when she tried to leave the supermarket without paying. She was granted bail of HK$1,000.
The duty lawyer representing Sano asked for leniency as she had a clean record and had pleaded guilty to the charge. He added that she was supporting her two daughters and four sons on a monthly salary of HK$7,000.
Judge Peter Law said the value of the goods Sano stole was significant and he imposed a fine of HK$2,000, half of which was to be taken from her bail money.

She has a clean record daw kaya malamang first offense yan. Di niya dating gawi.
Ang maipapayo ko lang, huwag na huwag ilagay sa sariling bag ang mga items kung di p nabayaran. The shop provides naman baskets, trolleys na dapat paglagyan para malinaw na wala k intensiyon na masama.
Kung nagagawa nyo sa pinas maka puslit ng mga ganito huwag nyo dalhin dito sa hongkong.. kasi hi~tech na dito.. bawat galaw ng crimen nahuhuli agad agad.. reminder kahit saang sulok dito sa hk may mga mata na nakatutok sayo.. ingat ingat lang…. iwan nyo na sa Pinas yung mag nalaw ng hindi sayo..

Ano kaya totoo pangyayari? Kc parang mahirap yata gawing umitin ang ganyan kadami item. 1 item nga lang mahihirapan ka ilabas ganyan pa kaya kadami. Orange. Eggplant etc.. D ba hirap itago ng mga item na iyan.. Kawawa naman si ate kung wala talaga sya kasalanan. Baka nawala sa sarili. At mahirap iyan ipaliwanag sa staff na chinese..
Kahit mahirap mg sakrepisyo para buhayin ang mga anak natin wag sn gumawa ng masamang paraan lalong malaki ang mawawala s atin kspag ganyan ngyari. Gumawa ng mabuti at s tamang paraan makakaraos din sanay nman.tayo sa hirap di ba
oh my god bakit mo ginawa yan kabayan.

my comments is this!paano nya ila yong marami na samantalapipila ka para mgbayad alangan mn kuha sya ng kuha at isisil nya sa backpack alam natin na may camera.
Dylan Sano Ching if your mom is not guilty let it pass. Move on na lang. Ang importante suportado sya nang amo nya. As i see a lawyer was present during the case hearing and to plead guilty is the best advice a lawyer can give on that situation. Your Mom was not detained on a prison cell so that was a good thing. As long as your mothers employer supports and believes in her plus family loves her everything is going to be ok.let people talk, its normal. Of course harsh words hurts but it will pass.
What you can do is be on your mothers side with much understanding and love. Dismiss in your mind bad comments you are recieving. People write their opinion base on what they read in the paper. Reporters write and twist stories. Things happen for a reason. Have faith in God and all will be alright soon. God bless.
