At least 10 people were caught on camera brawling near Golden Mile Tower.

The 10 YPs hurled a bunch of Hokkien vulgarities and started throwing punches and kicks at each other.

A woman was seen trying to stop them but failed to do so as the fight continues.

How it started

In the 3 minute video, at least two were knocked out onto the floor and they continued to climb back up to fight.

At the beginning of the video two men could be seen pressing down on one of them. While 5 other people were arguing.

The argument got heated when one of them who was wearing a Guess T-shirt took a cheap shot from behind and the rest started to join in and fight.

One of them wearing a jacket was seen getting hit by several of them and eventually fell to the floor.

Netizens believed that the fight started after they had a drink nearby.

Singapore Customs arrests three men and a woman and seizes 1,100 cartons of duty-unpaid cigarettes

Singapore Customs arrested four suspects – two male PRC nationals, a male Singaporean and a female Singaporean – aged between 25 and 42, and seized 1,100 cartons of duty-unpaid cigarettes in an operation on 28 June 2022.

Case information

During the operation conducted in the vicinity of Waringin Park, Singapore Customs officers observed brown boxes being transferred from a Singapore-registered van into a Singapore-registered car parked side by side. Suspecting that the brown boxes contained duty-unpaid cigarettes, officers moved in to conduct checks on the three men and woman, and uncovered 150 and 950 cartons of duty-unpaid cigarettes in the car and van respectively. All four persons were arrested.

The duty-unpaid cigarettes, two vehicles, and cash amounting to $6,300 found on the two PRC nationals suspected to be linked to duty-unpaid cigarette transactions, were seized in the operation. The total duty and Goods and Services tax (GST) evaded amounted to about $93,940 and $7,470 respectively. Investigations are ongoing.

Buying, selling, conveying, delivering, storing, keeping, possessing or dealing with duty-unpaid goods are serious offences under the Customs Act and the GST Act.

Offenders can be fined up to 40 times the amount of duty and GST evaded and/or jailed for up to six years. Vehicles used in the commission of such offences and proceeds of sales of duty-unpaid cigarettes are also liable to be forfeited.

Members of public with information on smuggling activities or evasion of duty or GST can call the Singapore Customs hotline on 1800-2330000 or email [email protected] to report these illegal activities.
