Senior Assistant Commissioner and CNB covering director Sng Chern Hong thanked HKNB for sharing intelligence.
“We stand ready to work with our close counterparts to disrupt drug syndicates and their operations. Those who attempt to traffic drugs through Singapore will be stopped and dealt with in accordance with the law,” he said.
“Singapore is not a transit point for drug smugglers and we will not allow our travel hubs to be misused for criminal activity. This operation demonstrates our firm, zero tolerance stance against drugs.”
Those convicted of trafficking more than 30g of cocaine may face the death penalty.
Investigations into the drug activities of those arrested are ongoing, CNB added.
