My dad's laptop was missing a few months ago. I can't remember the exact date, but I think it's probably on March or April. At that time, there was a new foreign worker working for us. He's only been working for a week. The laptop was missing the day after he saw the laptop in the drawer. The day the laptop was missing, he told my dad that he's going to be late to work cuz he's got other plans. A week later, he bought a new PSP. One of our staff asked him when did he bought it and where, he said he bought it 5 months ago at Singapore. But earlier today, his room mate showed me a purchase receipt of the PSP, and the date was on April 2008. The address stated there is Kuala Lumpur. Could he be the one who stole the laptop? What should I do now? He's young and live by himself. It's kinda hard to believe that he's got money to buy the PSP himself. Especially when he always asked for salary advance, and sometimes he would ask me if he could borrow some money (But his excuse usually was he doesn't have small change) However he never failed to pay me back. And why is he lying about when he bought the PSP? We noticed that he likes to boast on the things that he has , for example he would simply play a song from his high tech handphone in full volume so everyone would notice, but we never saw him showing off his PSP BEFORE the laptop was stolen. We're not gonna bring him to the court, well at least if we know who did it, we could at least get rid of the thief.

he may have, but it wouldnt be worth trying anything in a small claims court. there is no hard evidence unless the police are willing to follow the money trail, and that would only work with reciepts or credit card. i would still keep an eye on him though if he still works there.

I'm an unemployed student. I can afford a PSP. And many other things.

probably!!!! but try to catch him on the crime scene like put an expensive thing in a place and use a hidden camera to confirm>>>> if it is not possible try to think of another smart way

He may be guilty.. but you know if you want to accuse someone of theft you do need proper evidence.. without evidence you still might do someone an injustice..Even a criminal gets a trial before he is convicted and a defense lawyer to plead his case of ''not guilty'' and a person is considered ''not guilty'' unless proven otherwise so he could be the person who stole the laptop... yes, but you cannot take legal action without proof... unfortunately.. xx

Never believe the foreign workers. Fire him before things get worse
