S$40,000 worth of drugs found hidden in laptop; three arrested
SINGAPORE: Officers from the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) on Friday (Sep 5) arrested three suspected drug offenders, and seized 256g of Ice and 50 Ecstasy tablets in an operation. The drug haul had an estimated street value of more than S$40,000, CNB said in a news release.
At 12.05am on Friday, CNB officers stopped two men, aged 25 and 23, for a routine check at Woodlands Checkpoint. They were travelling into Singapore on a Singapore-registered motorcycle.
CNB said that upon further inspection, they found drugs hidden in the 25-year-old’s laptop.
Later that day, at 6.05am, CNB officers arrested a 33-year-old man near a petrol kiosk in Woodlands. He is believed to be a possible drug client of the 25-year-old suspect, said CNB.
The three suspects, all Singaporean, are under investigation for importing drugs. - CNA/ek
