Malaysian arrested at Tuas Checkpoint over S$1 million drug haul

Original: A 32-year-old Malaysian was arrested at Tuas Checkpoint, Singapore for suspected drug smuggling, with more than S$1 mill

A 32-year-old Malaysian was arrested at Tuas Checkpoint in Singapore on suspicion of drug smuggling after authorities seized drugs worth more than S$1 million. Nearly 7kg of heroin were found concealed in packets disguised as commercial biscuits on a Malaysian-registered motorcycle. A Singaporean was also reportedly involved, and the case has drawn attention to smuggling methods at the border crossing.

Why now: The large street value of the seizure and the unusual biscuit-packet concealment method make the arrest newsworthy.
