A 32 year old panties pervert used a home-made
fishing rod to steal hundreds of pairs of worn
underwear from unsuspecting women.
The deviant would cast his rod into the homes and
gardens of women and attempt to catch a their
underwear.
After snaring a bra or panties he would then reel in
his "catch" before pocketing them and running away.
The man, known only by his last name Zhang, was
finally caught after being stopped by police during a
routine vehicle check in the eastern Chinese city of
Liyang last month.
As officers flung open the doors of his van, they
were stunned to discover a seedy haul of 285 bras
and 185 panties - all worn. He was also found to
have pilfered a further 102 items of clothing and
later admitted he had collected the items over a
three year period.
According to reports in China, Zhang told officers
he had started by simply taking one or two items
but soon became unable to control himself.
As his lust for used lingerie grew he took greater
risks and created his "fishing rod" to help him
swipe even more unmentionables.
Police said the man has been sent for psychiatric
assessment and that a criminal investigaiton has been
opened.
The incident is the latest in a number of cases where
men have been caught stealing hundreds of pairs of
women's underwear.
