KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 6: A Bangladeshi man, dissatisfied with his salary in Malaysia, stole two padlocks from a supermarket so he would be deported, a local daily said on Saturday.

The man, a contract cleaner, told a court magistrate that he had been working in Malaysia for 17 months, but was unable to save much money due to his low salary.—Reuters
