A group of 10 guys, who are presumably NSFs, gathered in a group of 10, more than the permissable limit of 8 per group.
They were gathered at the entrance of what seemed to be The Cathay, where the guys were conducting their “last parade”.
A “last parade” is a daily ceremony conducted in Singaporean army camps, where the entire company falls in and reports their “strength” (number of people present) to their superiors, to account for any missing soldiers.
It is unclear if these guys are still NSFs and if so, what units they are from.
Nature lovers were understandably horrified when they discovered large swathes of the Kranji Woodlands forest cleared.
Cleared by mistake
The land was originally earmarked for the construction of the up-and-coming Agri-Food Innovation Park, before the vegetation got “erroneously” cleared by a contractor of JTC.
JTC Corporation has since released a statement, explaining that they have also since issued a stern warning to their contractor and investigations are ongoing.
In their statement, JTC said that they discovered that their contracted had started clearing certain portions of the forest on 13 January.
JTC also said that they were planning on conducting environmental assessments before carrying out clearing works.
The studies started in December 2020 and were projected to be completed by April 2021.
They also planned on consulting stakeholders of the forest, including nature groups before commencing any works.
After JTC discovered the unauthorised clearing of the forest, their contractor was immediately instructed to halt all works and a “stern warning” was issued.
NParks also said that they are currently investigating the incident as well and that they are taking a serious view of the unauthorised clearing.
The suspect and the deceased who were involved in the Jurong East murder are said to have broken up recently. The suspect waited for her downstairs at the deceased’s home for more than three hours before the incident. After quarreling and fighting with each other, he was suspected of stabbing her multiple time that led to her death before she fell to the ground.
The 35-year-old male suspect and the 34-year-old female deceased were reported to have been lovers, but the neighbours revealed that the two had broken up. The 35-year-old man has been arrested for his alleged involvement in the murder.
It is believed that the victim was from Malaysia while the suspect was a PRC man. The PRC man who lived nearby was seen waiting for her at her void deck of her home. When she came back more than 11pm at night, the two had a big fight, which caused residents concern.
The deceased was seen lying down motionless in her blood outside a nearby kindergarten.
The police were then seen at the scene before they cordoned off Block 306 to Block 309 Jurong East St 32. The deceased was lying on the outside of Sparkletots Kindergarten downstairs at Block 308 with multiple stab wounds on her body. Some residents said that when she was taken by the ambulance, her hands were still moving.
The police revealed that she was unconscious when she was sent to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital and eventually died from her injuries at around 1:30 am today (17th Feb).
The suspect was also believed to be injured and he was found at Block 307.
A 32-year-old parent said that when she sent her daughter to school this morning, she was shocked to see the blood on the ground outside the kindergarten. She could only cover her child’s eyes and take her on a detour.
The kindergarten is open as usual today, but the children must make a detour to enter.
The deceased man who is being accused of fatally stabbing his wife in Tampines, had both his charges formally removed by the district court on 16 February.
Because under the Criminal Procedure Code, an abatement of every charge or criminal proceeding against an accused must be ordered upon his death.
Both the suspect and alleged victim have since passed away.
