What happened?
On 18 February 2021, Norazidah somehow managed to lie her way into the Police Cantonment Complex, leaving behind a white box containing a bluetooth speaker, a TV box, two remote controls, two charging wires, a red packet that contained several papers, a yellow talisman and a brooch; at the complex’s 2nd level.
She then left the complex at about 9am.
The objects inside an orange bag were found by an alarmed officer at about 4pm, and he called the security.
Norazidah was subsequently arrested and questioned, and she gave a slew of reasons for her presence at the complex; however she didn’t have a valid excuse for why she left the items behind.
Separately, on 18 March 2021, at about 11.20pm, She was spotted dancing naked and pouring powder onto the ground at a back alley in Geylang Lorong 20.
She also threw rubbish and cans into a fire on top of a metal box.
Police were notified and found burnt items, including beer cans and mosquito coils on top of the box.
