Italian man cleared of stealing aubergine after nine years
A man has been acquitted of stealing an aubergine by Italy's top court, ending a legal battle that cost taxpayers around â¬8,000 (â¹6.5 lakh). He was arrested in 2009, when he told the police that he was unemployed and trying to feed his child. The lower courts initially sentenced him to jail, but his lawyer appealed to the highest court.
