ゲイランで121人が検挙される（20140605）

最近ゲイランの立ちんぼが居なくなっているという噂が流れていますが、以下のニュースのように49人の男性と72人の女性が逮捕されたようです。

売春や密輸たばこ、違法ドラッグ、違法セックスドラッグ、不法滞在などが検挙されたようです。

ゲイランの検挙の頻度は多くなく、ここまで逮捕者が出たのは珍しいですが、皆さんも気をつけてください。

ニュース抜粋：121 men and women arrested in Geylang for drug, vice offences (20140605)

A total of 121 people were arrested in Geylang on Tuesday and Wednesday for various offences in a multi-agency operation. The offences include vice, drug-related activities, immigration offences and the peddling of contraband cigarettes and illegal sexual enhancement drugs. Of those arrested, 49 were men and 72 were women aged between 19 and 48. The operation was led by Bedok Police Division and involved enforcement officers from the Criminal Investigation Department, Immigration and Checkpoints Authority, Health Sciences Authority and Central Narcotics Bureau.

また、今回の検挙は2014年03月30日のシンガポール警察庁長官の Ng Joo Heeがゲイラン地域について懸念を持っているという発言に関係があると考えられます。

もう少しの間はバタバタしそうですね。

Geylang has come under fresh focus after Police Commissioner Ng Joo Hee said last Tuesday that he was more worried about the area than Little India, where a riot involving foreign workers took place last December.
