A full-time Police National Serviceman was found with a gunshot wound to his head at the Protective Security Command, 300 Ulu Pandan Road.
The 23-year-old serviceman reported for duty at 8 am on 3 September 2018 and had drawn his service revolver from the armoury.
He was later found with a gunshot wound to his head at 3.20 pm at the rest area in the Protective Security Command where he was taking a break before resuming duty. His service revolver was found beside him. He was conveyed unconscious to the National University Hospital and subsequently succumbed to his injuries on 9 September 2018.
Preliminary investigations by the Criminal Investigation Department revealed that he was heard arguing on the phone shortly before he was found with the gunshot wound. The Police have classified the case as unnatural death, and the circumstances relating to it are being carefully investigated. No foul play is suspected.
The Police extend our deepest condolences to the family of the late serviceman and are assisting the family in this time of grief.
