OCTOBER 14 — How can a cop afford watches worth RM400k?by Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng after a 41-year-old housewife was charged at the Magistrate’s Court in Ipoh with stealing her police officer husband’s luxury Rolex watches three years ago.According to the charge sheet, she was charged with stealing a Rolex Sky-Dweller and Rolex GMT Master-II 9 said to be worth RM207,000 and RM198,000 respectively.
He wondered whether their superiors or supervisors had ever asked how they could afford such luxury vehicles or required them to declare their assets. Such legislation would have introduced measures that include what is called unexplained wealth orders . A UWO places the burden on the individual, rather than the authority, to prove how he or she has accumulated his or her wealth.
