  "account": "On September 7, a 32-year-old man was apprehended during a routine police patrol in Tiong Bahru Plaza. According to the Singapore Police Force, the incident occurred around 8:30pm when officers were conducting a standard check in the area. The man, who was allegedly wanted for drug-related offences, resisted arrest and had to be subdued by police using necessary force. Video footage shared on the Xiaohongshu platform shows the man cornered against a wall, attempting to break free from the officers. Upon searching the suspect, police discovered a vaporiser in his possession, which has been referred to the Health Sciences Authority for further investigation. The drug-related offences, on the other hand, have been handed over to the Central Narcotics Bureau for further scrutiny. Ongoing investigations are being conducted into the matter.",
