From The Raw Story:
Singapore- A thief who stole a Bible was given his own copy of the Christian scriptures by a Singapore district judge, who then sentenced the man to four months in prison, news reports said Wednesday.
Tan Jit Liang, 26, was told by Judge Bala Reddy to open his gift [of] the Old Testament."You will see at page 65 that it says, 'Thou shalt not steal..."
"While you are in prison, sit in prison and read the Bible, and ensure that you don't come before the courts again," Reddy said.
... Tan admitted telling a psychiatrist that he wanted a new Bible to replace his torn and tattered one.
