Pls see illustrations c and d
However, there could be cases of ppl intentionally buying goods
that may be fake, with the intention of charging the seller
commiting criminal cheating or claiming damages in a civil code by
suing the seller.
The police would investigate your statements made in the police
report, and that is all they go by- (report would be handed to the
investigating officer) so you have to be sure to provide the honest
and correct perspective of what exactly happened. Therefore make
sure a third party would be able to clearly understand your case as
typed in the police report as whether the investigation officer
will take action as a criminal or civil (not handed by police)
hinge on the wording of the police report made.
If you have any other assistance you may ask here or seek advice
from a pro bono lawyer (legal aid at maxwell or community justice
centre @ Singapore state's court's)
