4 foreigners, aged between 24 & 36, arrested for suspected drug offences in Woodlands

Four male foreign nationals, aged between 24 and 36, were arrested for suspected drug offences in Woodlands.

Acting on information received, officers from the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) launched an operation at a foreign worker residential lodging in the vicinity of Woodlands Avenue 1.

CNB officers subsequently arrested a 32-year-old male foreign national for suspected drug trafficking offences, and three other male foreign nationals, aged 24, 30, and 36, for alleged drug abuse.

A total of 68g of cannabis, 18g of "Ice", 29 "Yaba" tablets and various drug paraphernalia were seized after a search of the men and their living area was conducted.

Investigations into all arrested suspects are ongoing.

Superintendent Royce Chua stated that CNB regularly engages the community, including the migrant worker community, to raise awareness on the harms of drugs and Singapore's zero-tolerance stance against drugs.

"CNB will not hesitate to take tough enforcement action against drug traffickers and offenders, and will spare no effort to detect, disrupt, and dismantle drug operations to keep Singapore safe."
