THE fate of a 19-year-old man charged with burglary and theft will be known next month.

Livai Drigita pleaded guilty to both counts before magistrate Sufia Hamza in the Suva Magistrate's Court yesterday.

He stole household items including food from the complainant amounting to $1730.

The court heard that on July 30, the accused entered the complainant's house in Vatuwaqa and stole items ranging from laptops, canvas, laptop bag, frozen foods and kitchenware.

Police prosecutor Corporal Luke Qerewaqa said Drigita was an unemployed man of Tacirua.

Drigita will be sentenced on November 15.
