SINGAPORE - A foreigner who tried to offer two police officers a $20 bribe on Wednesday has been arrested.

At 2.30am on August 22, Staff Sergeant Yeo Mingshu Yves and Corporal Fatin Hazirah conducted checks on a woman who was smoking outside Orchard Towers.

She had discarded her cigarette butt on the floor despite prior warnings, and was told that she would issued a summon for littering.

As the officers were in the process of taking down her particulars, the woman decided to offer them a bribe of $20.

Both officers were commended for upholding integrity.

"Integrity and professionalism are core values of every SPF officer," said Commander of Tanglin Police Division, Deputy Assistant Commisioner of Police Lu Yeow Lim in a statement to the media.
