20-year-old ITE student Tharuna Thirunavukkarasu was already under curfew for a previous incident. She decided to break her curfew hours and made a false police report to “cover-up”.
The 20-year-old made a report that her ex-boyfriend attacked her and abducted her into a van as the reason for breaking the curfew. However, the real reason behind this is because she was out drinking with her friends past the curfew hours (Jan 19).
She was drinking with her friends In Telok Blangah and made up the story to the Police to avoid going to jail. The next day(Jan 20), she told the Police that on the 19 Jan 2021 she was slapped and punched which “caused” several injuries on her.
She added that her wallet and phone was taken away and her ex-boyfriend abducted her into a silver van. She also claimed that she saw weapons and drugs in the vehicle.
However, Police investigations revealed that her ex-boyfriend was not with her which revealed her false report.
She will be back in court on the 6th May for her sentencing and she could be facing up to 2 years jail time and/or fine.
