    SPF Issues Warning On Impersonation Of Traffic Police Officer

    Singapore Police Force (SPF) has announced that it is aware of reports lodged by members of the public who have received phone calls purportedly from a Traffic Police officer.

    SPF alerted members of the public that in these cases, the call recipients were informed that a relative of their neighbour had been involved in a road traffic accident.

    “The call recipients were then asked to inform their neighbour to contact the Traffic Police,” it added.

    The Police stated that it would like to clarify that these calls were not made by Traffic Police officers.

    If in doubt, The Police advised members of the public to verify the authenticity of such calls by calling the Police hotline at 1800-255 0000.

    “Members of the public are encouraged to share this advisory with family and friends,” the Police added.

  • Ex-Policeman Loses Appeal, Death Sentence Upheld For Kovan Double-Murder

    Ex-Policeman Loses Appeal, Death Sentence Upheld For Kovan Double-Murder

    Former policeman Iskandar Rahmat will not be spared the noose for the Kovan double murder in July 2013.

    The Court of Appeal on Friday (Feb 3) upheld his two death sentences for viciously stabbing to death Mr Tan Boon Sin, 67, and his 42-year-old son Chee Heong.

    The murder weapon, a knife, was never found.

    Iskandar, 37, was found guilty and sentenced to death on Dec 4, 2015. Justice Tay Yong Kwang had said that he had “no doubt” the former policeman, facing bankruptcy and dismissal from the force, intended to kill the elder Mr Tan for his money.

    When Mr Tan’s son got home “at the most inopportune moment” and witnessed his father’s murder, “he quickly became collateral damage”, Justice Tay had said.

    Father and son died of multiple stab wounds to the face, neck and chest.

  • Woman Charged With Hurting Religious Feelings Of Her Neighbours In Tampines

    Woman Charged With Hurting Religious Feelings Of Her Neighbours In Tampines

    A woman was charged Wednesday (25 January) in the State Courts with hurting the religious feelings and harassment of her neighbours at an HDB block in Tampines last year.

    Lee Dji Lin, 63, faces one charge of wounding the religious or racial feelings of Marliah Jonet for throwing a piece of raw pork from a lift to outside the victim’s flat at Blk 247 Tampines Street 21 on 18 June 2016. If convicted, Lee faces a jail term of up to three years, or a fine, or both.

    The accused also faces two other charges of harassment. One charge alleged that Lee waved a pig-shaped figurine and shouted insults in Malay at one of Marliah’s daughters including “pig, pig, pig, piglet, one by one (your) children die” on 24 April 2016. The other charge alleged that Lee used a bamboo pole attached with a female underwear and swung it towards Marliah’s flat on 14 June 2016.

    Lee faces a fine of up to $5,000 for one harassment charge, and a jail term of up to six months, or a fine of up to $5,000, or both for the other harassment charge.

    In July last year, Yahoo Singapore interviewed Marliah about the incidents. According to Marliah, Lee had been harassing her family for six years.

    Former model Hanis Hussey, Marliah’s sister-in-law, posted a video on YouTube last year allegedly showing Lee being caught in the act.

    A woman was seen shouting in the direction of Marliah’s ninth-storey flat from a floor below in the video. She also used a water hose to spray water towards Marliah’s laundry poles. CCTV footage showed the woman throwing a plastic bag allegedly containing pork onto the corridor of Marliah’s flat.

    Marliah had reported the matter to the police and other relevant authorities about the incidents. She said that she had also sent an email to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, who then referred her matter to the Tampines town council.

    Lee was ordered by the court to be remanded for two weeks to undergo psychiatric evaluation. When asked for her response to the court order, the petite and frail-looking Lee claimed that she was innocent.

    The case will be mentioned again on 8 February.

  • Singaporean Auxiliary Officer Not Good Enough?

    Singaporean Auxiliary Officer Not Good Enough?

    I am a auxiliary officer and have been working for close to 2 years. I have many friends that apply security part time work after they finish polytechnic. Nowadays i see there is more demand for security type of jobs.

    But now they are outsourcing to Taiwanese? I know people that are willing to do security job work ok, so don’t say that local Singaporeans don’t want security jobs. People are already looked down for choosing security guard as their first job after finishing school. It doesn’t help these people’s confidence in the job. If employers want to retain them, they must do something. Only officers like us will know this feeling.

    Even salary difference between us and the future Taiwanese officers is so big. What’s the differences they have to get more starting pay than us? They graduate from their own uni we graduate from poly but end up, we do same job. If do same job then why give them higher pay….so they coming here to become supervisors? I have my own family to feed and take care of my parents. actually we should get higher pay.

  • Young Couple Caught On CCTV During Robbery Spree At VivoCity

    Young Couple Caught On CCTV During Robbery Spree At VivoCity

    Five restaurant operators in VivoCity yesterday discovered their premises had been burgled.

    One owner, who declined to be named, told The New Paper: “(It seems) the burglars targeted open-concept restaurants as there are no doors and people can just walk in and out.”

    He added that the restaurant’s closed-circuit television footage showed a pair who “looked like a young couple”.

    “They tried opening the safe, then tapping the back of the cash register but it was too heavy to be moved,” he said.

    “So they took the tip box, which was beside the cash register and inside a locker. They opened it with a screwdriver.”

    He estimated that the tip box had about $300.

    An employee at Japanese restaurant Monster Curryfound the floor in a mess when she arrived at 10am. She alerted her management immediately.

    Her manager said: “Everything was on the floor and she felt something was amiss. Then she saw the safe on the floor.

    “We use barricades only when we close off the restaurant and there are no doors because our restaurant is meant to have an open-concept design.”

    Luckily, nothing was stolen.

    TIP BOX

    The supervisor of hotpot restaurant Jpot said walkie-talkies and a tip box with about $50, were stolen.

    The other affected restaurants are Shin Kushiya and Paik’s Bibim.

    The mall management said the police had been alerted.

    “As police investigations are still ongoing, we will not be able to provide further details pertaining to the case,” they added.

    A police spokesman said: “On Dec 22 at 10.26am, the police were alerted to a case of theft in dwelling at Vivocity.”

    Investigations are ongoing.
