Violent struggle caught on video leads to drug bust in Rangoon Road

SINGAPORE – A man was caught on video dragging a woman violently into an apartment.

But that’s not the end of it.

Police received a call for help at a residential unit along Rangoon Road at around 9am on Monday (Feb 29).

What turned out as a distress call, soon revealed a larger discovery as drug paraphernalia and suspected controlled substances were found in the premises.

Police then arrested a 43-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman.

The video, which was posted by The Local Society on Facebook yesterday (March 4), showed a heavily tattoed man dragging a woman from the lift into an apartment.

Clad only in a towel, the woman struggled fruitlessly against the man, falling to the ground and hitting her head against the corridor a few times.

The woman also dropped her towel during the tussle.

She was eventually pulled into the apartment.

Police said investigations are ongoing.
