A 49-year-old man was arrested on Monday (Dec 8) over his alleged involvement in a case of loanshark harassment on Sunday.
In a statement on Dec 9, the police said that they were alerted to a case of loanshark harassment at a residential unit along Jurong West Street 64.
"The main gate of the unit was secured with a bicycle lock, splashed with red paint, and a debtor's note was also placed on the gate," the police said.
