While his peers were focusing on studies or video games, a 16-year-old Singaporean boy was planning bloody murder.
Influenced by Brenton Tarrant, a white supremacist who slaughtered 51 people at two mosques in New Zealand in 2019, the secondary school student had planned copycat attacks here on March 15, the second anniversary of the Christchurch massacre.
His original weapon of choice was an assault rifle similar to the one used by Tarrant, but when he realised the difficulty of acquiring a gun in Singapore, he settled on a machete from online platform Carousell.
Before he could buy the machete, the youth was detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) last month after the authorities uncovered his plans.
