The 18-year-old boy and his 19-year-old sister then went on a shopping spree, splurging on various items such as clothes, cosmetics, branded goods and smartphones. 

 

When the police asked them about the purchases, the siblings admitted that they had paid for the items using the money stolen from their 80-year-old grandmother.

The girl was also found to have transferred $1,000 to her mother’s bank account. However, the woman was unaware that the money was obtained illegally.

The siblings have been charged in court for the offence. 

Facing a total of five charges, the boy pleaded guilty to two counts of theft and one count of outrage of modesty. 

He will be sentenced at a later date.
