A video emerged online showing an uncle openly taking a sh*t in public.
He was seen hiding behind some bushes and sh*tting, before standing up and wondering how in mother nature’s big blue earth was he going to wipe his backside.
It is unclear what he did with the sh*t that he left behind or how he wiped his butt.
The Police are looking for the men shown in the images below to assist with investigations into a case of theft of bicycle reported on 15 August 2021 at Blk 930 Hougang Street 91.
