The man was fined a total of RM30,000 after he pleaded guilty at the magistrates’ court here last week to committing the offences on Feb 25.

He was ordered to be deported after he paid the fine.

According to a lawyer from Vinsa & Ian who represented him, the man, 32, was charged with two offences related to the museum break-in: trespassing into the building and breaking the glass casing containing the royal artefacts.

He was slapped with a fine of RM4,500 and RM10,000, respectively, for the two offences.

For the third offence, he was fined RM3,000 for breaking a glass mirror at the Z Hotel where he was staying.

The Singaporean, who also holds a Dutch passport, was fined another RM10,000 under the Immigration Act for overstaying by 183 days.

On the fifth charge, he pleaded guilty to administering methamphetamine and amphetamine on himself at the police narcotics department in Johor Bahru. He was fined RM2,500 for this offence under the Dangerous Drugs Act.

The lawyer informed the court that Hospital Permai had confirmed that the accused had mental health issues but was fit to enter a plea.
