Beijing, Aug 3 (IANS) A Chinese thief's habit of writing a diary cost him badly when police seized his notebook in which he had recorded details of all 88 motorbikes that he stole in the last five months, China Daily reported.
The thief, surnamed Zhang, was caught while scooping the 89th motorbike in Sichuan province, after he boldly offered a tricycle driver five yuan to help him carry away a locked motorbike. This act drew a policeman's suspicion who was standing nearby.
During Zhang's house search, the police discovered his treasured diary containing history of all the motorbikes he had stolen and the prices at which he sold them faithfully noted down in it.
Zhang was accused of theft and arrested.
