Hi everyone, recently sth just happened and im kinda
paranoid..
just today, i was on my way to get some personal things done at
harbourfront centre, near vivo.
As i was just walking normaly, 2 ‘singapore police force’ ppl
approached me. okay,
one of them was chinese, the other i believe to be malay. so the
chinese spf guy
approached me and ask me for my ic. he said ’ you mei you ic? ( do
u have ur ic?) ’
and i say have. i took out my 11b and showed it to him as im just
an nsf.
den he say, ’ oh 11b ah, u regular ah? ’ and i said no. he then
questioned me
what am i doing here and i said that im here to do some personal
stuff and that
im on official leave from my army unit. den he further questioned
me where i study
last time bla bla bla.. as all these was happening , the malay spf
guy just took down my
particulars. i saw he was writing my address only. Finally, the
chinese guy ask me if i got any criminal record and i say no. im a
clean and honest person.
i began to get suspicious as it was only like 10+am and they
just suddenly want to take
down my particulars? i mean is this even possible? i didn’t even do
anything! he also look quite suspicious. He was a sergeant as i
recognise the 3 chevrons he had on his shoulders. He didn’t had any
police hat with him. as for the malay guy, he didn’t had anything
on his shoulders and remain quiet the whole time. he also didn’t
had any police
hat with him.
what im worried is that they have my address and i don’t want
any of them to disturb my family. Finally i wanna ask, is this
standard protocol for police on patrol ? just taking down addresses
as and when they like even when u are just walking normaly?
they should have name tags. you remember their ID number or names?
if so call police station with the details that happened and ask
police is this normal. they should not take down your address if
its a routine check. tehy also will not ask you whether you got
criminal record or not unless its a case reported. they should
radio back to their unit with your id to check criminal records
only, not take it down for routine check?!
alo they should be i proper uniform whenver thye are on
duty.
we only fear they are fake. whatever routine procedure they have
is trnsparent yo civilians. we have the right to authauticate and
check them first if its ;routine'. if not anyone can also put on
NPCC uniform and say they are police.
