Police arrested two men for fighting near Kim Chuan Road, at about 4:40pm on Sunday (Aug 31). The suspects are aged 40 and 44.

They were spotted by Voluntary Special Constable (VSC) Corporal Jeremy Koh and Special Constable (SC) Sergeant Allan Tay, who proceeded to question them.


A news release from the Singapore Police Force on Monday said during the interview, the 44-year-old man attempted to bribe the officers by offering them two unopened packets of cigarettes, but that this bribe was "flatly rejected".

Both suspects will be charged in court on Tuesday and could be fined up to one year, and fined S$5,000 for fighting. The Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) will also be investigating the 44-year-old suspect for attempting to bribe the police officers.
