SINGAPORE - Housewife Zaleha Binte Ahmad, 49, wanted the police to send her home because she did not have enough money for transport.
Using a pay phone at Bukit Batok MRT Station, she called the 999 hotline on May 24 at 2.50pm to say that a man told her to bomb an MRT station.
She told the hotline operator what clothes she was wearing so the police could locate her. When they arrived, she identified herself as the one who made the call but later admitted she had lied.
Yesterday, Zaleha pleaded guilty to lying that a terrorist act would be carried out. She has been jailed seven months.
