Man fined for leaving urine and faeces outside neighbour's Bukit Batok flat

In a recent incident in Singapore, a man was captured on camera stealing a speaker from an unattended counter at Top One Communication Pte Ltd, a local mobile phone and electronics retailer. The owner of the store, Top One Communication Pte Ltd, has posted the video multiple times on TikTok in an attempt to identify the perpetrator.

The incident took place on September 16 at 2:00 pm at the company's outlet located at Block 376 Bukit Batok Street 31. The video shows a man dressed in a black shirt and wearing earbuds standing at the shop's glass case counter, holding a transparent orange plastic bag and appearing to wait to be attended to. He can be clearly seen looking in the direction of the camera, indicating that his face is visible.

After waiting for a few seconds, as people pass by behind him, he looks left as if anticipating someone's return. When no one comes, he opens the plastic bag and reaches for the speaker, which was displayed on the counter, detaching it carefully and placing it into the orange bag. He then ambles away without incident. The post's author, @leon9cha4, asked in the caption, "Do you know this guy?" and encouraged viewers to help identify the thief.

The post was shared multiple times with text overlays in Chinese, Hindi, Malay, as well as hashtags such as #banglatiktok, #indiantiktok, #malaysiatiktok, #myanmartiktok, #pinoytiktok, #indonesiatiktok, and #sgtiktok. Commenters on the post encouraged the owner to file a police report over the theft.
