A convicted thief who had served out a three-year jail sentence was back to his old tricks a month into his freedom in Bantey Meanchey’s Serei Sophoan town.

On Tuesday, police busted him and an accomplice for breaking into houses, confiscating the duo’s motorbike for evidence.

The alleged thieves were sent to Banteay Meanchey’s Provincial Court.
