  • 1kg Of Heroin Seized From Singaporean Drug Trafficker In Teck Whye

    1kg Of Heroin Seized From Singaporean Drug Trafficker In Teck Whye

    A 50-year-old Singaporean man was caught with nearly 1kg of heroin in Teck Whye early on Tuesday morning (April 11), the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) said in a statement.

    At around 1.20am, the suspected drug trafficker was observed meeting with a 37-year-old Malaysian man in a carpark in the vicinity of Teck Whye Lane. The two were then observed in a car together for a short moment before the Malaysian man alighted and the Singaporean drove off.

    The Malaysian man was later arrested with S$3,400 in cash found in his possession.

    CNB officers also arrested the Singaporean after he parked his car in another location nearby. Two bundles of heroin, valued at around S$64,000, were recovered from his car.

    Investigations into the drug activities of both suspects are ongoing.

    Both men could face the dealth penalty if the amount of diamorphine (pure heroin) trafficked exceeds 15g. That amount of diamorphine is equivalent to 1,250 straws, which is sufficient to feed the addiction of about 180 abusers for a week.

  • CNB Busts Estimated $200,000 Worth of Drugs

    CNB Busts Estimated $200,000 Worth of Drugs

    SINGAPORE: More than S$200,000 worth of drugs – 1.9kg of heroin, 1kg of cannabis and 198g of Ice – were seized by the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) in two separate operations on Wednesday (Nov 5).

    CNB said on Thursday that officers deployed in Clementi spotted a 28-year-old suspect arriving at a housing block in a Malaysia-registered motorcycle on Wednesday morning. The Malaysian, according to CNB officers, was seen taking a plastic bag from his vehicle before proceeding to a unit in the housing block.

    CNB said he was arrested after he was seen coming down the block without the bag. When officers went up to the unit the suspect visited, a female suspect was also arrested for attempting to flush the drugs down the toilet. The 42-year-old Singaporean had drugs comprising about 1.28kg of heroin, 1,034g of cannabis, 95g of Ice and one Erimin-5 tablet in her apartment, the agency said.

    CNB added that another two male Malaysians – both aged 40 – were arrested when they tried to leave Singapore in a Malaysia-registered lorry on Wednesday afternoon. They were suspected to be involved in the same drug trafficking syndicate, CNB said.

    In a separate operation, CNB officers alongside Singapore Police Force (SPF) officers arrested another suspected drug trafficker at a HDB void deck in Tampines Street 81. CNB said the 42-year-old Singaporean was then escorted back to his suspected hideout where about 270g of heroin and 51g of Ice were recovered.

    In a subsequent search, CNB said another 416g of heroin and 52g of Ice were also recovered from his apartment. Drug paraphernalia such as numerous improvised drug-smoking apparatus and digital weighing scales were recovered too, the agency added.

    Investigations on all the suspects are ongoing. If convicted, they may face the death penalty.
