In a ceremony held at Clementi Police Division on 23 August 2019, three members of the public were commended for their public spiritedness in assisting the Police in two separate cases.
In the first case, on 23 May 2019, Mr Mohamed Juhairi Bin Juma’at saw a man standing on a stool near the parapet at Blk 58 Lengkok Bahru. Mr Juhairi reacted swiftly and managed to bring the man to safety and stayed with him until the Police arrived.
In the second case, on 23 June 2019, Mr Loo King Keong and his daughter Ms Alethea Luo Jiayi were walking down the stairs of an overhead bridge near 154 West Coast Road when they noticed a man placing a mobile phone underneath the skirt of a woman while they were travelling on an adjacent escalator that was moving upwards. Mr Luo and his daughter immediately went forward to confront the man. The man tried to flee but was subsequently detained by them until the Police arrived.
Assistant Commissioner of Police (AC) Jarrod Pereira, Commander of Clementi Police Division said, “Singapore is one of the safest place in the world and the community plays a big part in making this possible. These individuals have acted courageously, and their actions have resulted in a safer community for all.”
