SINGAPORE — When his friend from secondary school asked him for help in obtaining cannabis, a man agreed and asked his contact for assistance.
The contact was nabbed by Central Narcotics Bureau officers after making the transaction with a Malaysian man at a hospital car park.
His secondary school friend, 38-year-old Singaporean Nur Diana Abdul Rashid, also worked at the same building. After the exchange, Ng drove away but was arrested by CNB officers that same day and the black bundle was seized from her vehicle. Rafi's lawyer, Mr Andre Jumabhoy, said his client was remorseful and regretted what was"a stupid act" in a misguided attempt at helping his friend.
