Two Chinese nationals were arrested in connection with two housebreakings in Singapore. They were apprehended within six hours of the first incident, and police recovered valuables including watches, a branded pouch, jewelry, and cash.
Two Chinese nationals were arrested for housebreaking and theft at Bukit Timah and Buona Vista landed estates. Within six hours of a case of housebreaking and theft at a landed house in Bukit Timah getting reported on Wednesday (Dec 18), the police arrested two Chinese nationals who are in Singapore on social visit passes. The two men, aged 38 and 52, are suspected of breaking into the house along Greenleaf View to commit theft on Monday night when the unit was empty.
Police canvassed security cameras within and around the unit, including police cameras, to identify the suspects.Two watches valued at about $8,800, a branded pouch valued at about $5,000, an assortment of jewellery, and about $3,750 in cash were recovered from them. It was also established that some of the valuables recovered were related to another case of housebreaking and theft at a unit along Zehnder Road in Bouna Vista on Wednesday morning. The second case was reported to the police at about 8.20pm on the same day. Both units broken into do not have any burglar alarm system, although the house along Greenleaf View is fitted with security cameras that aided police investigations. The two suspects are believed to have gained access into the houses by climbing through unlocked windows.At a media briefing on Thursday, the police said that there are no current indications that others are involved in the two cases. However, investigations are ongoing and they have not ruled out the possibility that the two suspects are linked to the housebreaking syndicate active in Singapore in mid-2024. Commander of Clementi Police Division, Assistant Commissioner of Police Serene Chiu, added that the police “will spare no effort to apprehend persons who enter Singapore to commit crime and will deal with them sternly in accordance with the law”
