Prosecutors said the father of three decided in2003 to live by theft, and broke into nearly 70 homes,
bars and cars in search of cash.
检方表示,这名三个孩子的父亲在二○三年决定以行窃为生,并闯入近七十家民宅、吧及汽车中搜刮现
金。

M@搜刮 ~ 用各種方法聚斂、掠奪財物。如:「對街的銀樓,昨晚被搶匪搜刮一空。」亦作「搜括」。
F ~ 搜括 sōukuò = 搜刮sōuɡuā
The inimitable D says simply but suggestively 搜刮 = "claw" :-)
D ~ 搜刮红利 dividend stripping
