A FORMER employee of the Cortina watch outlet that was cleaned out of $7.9 million in timepieces and cash on Christmas Day is now a wanted man internationally. Mr Jerry Ee - who has been missing since the theft was discovered and got the sack from the company - has been listed under Interpol's wanted list for theft.
This came in the form of a red notice - the same alert level used for escaped terrorist Mas Selamat Kastari - against the 35-year-old to the international police organisation's member nations.
This means that any of these 187 countries can arrest him on the spot and extradite him to Singapore.
Mr Ee's height and weight was given as 1.62m and 50kg on the notice, which is available online and included pictures of him. He is stated as being conversant in English, Mandarin and Thai.
The international alert against him comes after the Christmas Day heist - said to be the biggest burglary in Singapore in years - at the Cortina outlet at Raffles City.
Staff at the Raffles City outlet discovered 386 timepieces and cash - with a total value of $7.9 million - missing when they turned up for work on Dec 26.
Security guards who were on duty on the night of the incident said that no alarms had gone off, and there were no signs of a break-in at the store.
Mr Ee has has been missing since the theft was discovered, with police attempts to contact him futile.
He had worked with the luxury watch retailer for at least four years and is divorced with two young children.
