Here's the sequence of events that occurred during the November 11 raid that took place in multiple locations.

Operation at Siglap Road

In the afternoon, CNB officers intercepted a vehicle in the vicinity of Siglap Road.

CNB did not provide a reason for intercepting said vehicle, but three bundles were recovered. They contained 1,453g of heroin.

Three Singaporeans were arrested — the 55-year-old male driver (A), a 50-year-old male (B) and a 52-year-old female passenger (C).

About 3g of heroin and 2g of ‘Ice’ were seized from B, and about 7g of ‘Ice’ and 20 ‘Ecstasy’ tablets were also seized from C.

Officers then brought C to her "hideout" unit in the vicinity of Siglap Road where they recovered about 11g of heroin, 2g of ‘Ice’, one ‘Ecstasy’ tablet, and one Erimin-5 tablet.

It's a lot of information to digest, so here's a handy table provided by CNB:
