How MRT station staff caught a commuter in possession of a vape​

When security staff stationed at Bishan MRT station saw a young man running away after being singled out for a security screening at the station entrance, they immediately followed him.

The security officers from Certis Cisco spotted him throwing an item into some bushes near the station, before returning to retrieve his bag, which he had left at the station entrance.

The man’s actions set alarm bells ringing, and they went to the bushes to see what was discarded. True enough, they found a turquoise e-vaporiser lying in the bushes.

At the same time, officers also asked the man, who was in his late teens, to stay put as SMRT duty station manager, Mr Muhammad Altamis, was alerted.

Mr Altamis then proceeded to question the man.

"I approached him and said: 'Is this yours?' And I needed him to answer truthfully, because we have a lot of surveillance (cameras), so yeah, he admitted," he said.

The vape was placed in a plastic bag and seized, and will be passed to the Health Sciences Authority (HSA).

The man’s personal particulars were taken down, and they will also be passed to HSA for further action, such as the issuance of a fine.

He remained calm throughout this process as some members of the media watched and took photos. He then walked away quickly after the process was completed.
