An SMRT Train was vandalised on Monday while it was parked at the Bishan Depot.
Police confirmed that they had received a report on the incident at about 6am on the 5th of May.
The Police said that they are currently working the SMRT to investigate the incident.
This is not the first time that an SMRT train has been vandalised at the Bishan Depot. In fact, security measures at the depot were supposed to have been strengthened after the first incident in August 2011.
Another interesting thing is that despite the increased security at the Depot, the vandals have not yet been caught by authorities.
In contrast, the other vandalism case this week, which saw phrases such as “F* the PAP” written on a Toa Payoh Block saw swift investigations with the offenders rounded up the vandals just two days later.
Is there no security footage to view at the Bishan Depot which was supposed to see heightened security measures? Or are the authorities just putting more effort into the 2nd case because of what was written?
