CNB arrested a 64-year-old Singaporean man for suspected drug trafficking offences during an anti-drug operation at a residential unit in the vicinity of Marsiling Road on 3 November 2026.

During the arrest, the suspect struggled violently and attacked an officer, biting the officer's thigh through his jeans. He also spat on two other officers. A search of the unit led to the seizure of about 1,554g of cannabis, 166g of 'Ice', 25g of 'Ecstasy', cash amounting to $356, and drug paraphernalia. The drugs seized are estimated to be worth more than $55,000. The cannabis and ‘Ice’ seized could potentially feed the addiction of 320 abusers for a week. All three officers received prompt medical attention including medical assessment for potential infectious diseases.

Commenting on the operation, Assistant Commissioner Ng Khai Song, Director Intelligence Division, said: "CNB will not tolerate any acts of violence against our officers. Our officers swiftly took down the suspected drug trafficker, and we will not hesitate to take firm action against those who threaten or assault our officers who are carrying out their duty. We stand firmly behind our officers and ensure that justice is served without fear or favour, as we remain relentless in bringing down drug offenders. CNB will render full assistance to officers who are injured in the line of duty.”

Under Section 5 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1973, it is an offence for a person, on his or her own behalf, or on behalf of any other person, whether or not that other person is in Singapore, to traffic in a controlled drug, offer to traffic in a controlled drug; or to do or offer to do any act preparatory to or for the purpose of trafficking in a controlled drug. If a person is found guilty of trafficking more than 500g of cannabis, he or she may face the mandatory death penalty.

Investigations into the drug activities of the arrested suspect are ongoing. The man was also referred to the Police for further investigations into offences of voluntarily causing hurt and using criminal force to deter public servants from their duties.

CNB arrested 74 suspected drug offenders in an island-wide anti-drug operation from 5 to 9 October 2026. Controlled drugs including about 243g of he**in, 128g of ‘Ice’, 244g of cannabis, 20g of ketamine, ten Erimin-5 tablets, two L*D stamps, a bottle of liquid GHB and a bottle of methadone were seized.

Further investigation led officers to recover a plastic bag containing about 17g of cannabis, two L*D stamps and drug paraphernalia, at the rubbish chute on the first floor.

A total of 119 persons were checked during the joint operation, of whom 86 were administered saliva test on suspicion of drug consumption.

On 24 September 2026, an inbound container at Pasir Panjang Scanning Station was found to contain 1,290 blocks of cannabis, weighing approximately 391kg in total.

Based on targeting efforts by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA), the container was flagged and referred for enhanced checks. During these checks, ICA's Image Analysts detected anomalies in the scanned images of the container. Upon physical inspection, ICA officers discovered suspected cannabis blocks concealed within boxes of gloves. CNB officers were immediately notified and conducted further checks on the container, uncovering a total of 1,290 blocks of cannabis with a combined weight of approximately 391kg.

Preliminary investigations revealed that the drugs were transiting through Singapore and bound for another country. Investigations are ongoing. Under Section 7 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1973, those who import into or export from Singapore more than 500g of cannabis may face the mandatory death penalty.

ICA works closely with CNB to prevent attempts to smuggle drugs across our borders. ICA will also continue to conduct security checks at the checkpoints to prevent attempts to smuggle undesirable persons, weapons, explosives and other contrabands across our borders.
