SINGAPORE — A 37-year-old man has been arrested under the Official Secrets Act (OSA) for sharing an image of an official police document linked to last week's fatal stabbing incident in Tampines.
Police said in a news release on Monday (15 February) that they were informed on 10 February that an image of a Police Look-Out Message (LOM) sent out to various law enforcement agencies had been posted on social media and circulated over messaging applications among members of the public.
"The LOM was issued at about 7.30am to the agencies, after the police had established the identity of the suspect who was believed to be involved in a stabbing incident at Tampines, reported on the same day at about 6.30am," said the police.
