According to a Facebook post as well as media release on the CNB website on Wednesday (12 Aug), the CNB said it seized assorted amounts of drugs and cash from 3 different locations.
The haul was as follows:
On Tuesday (11 Aug) evening, a unit on Geylang Lorong 4 was raid by the CNB.

Next, they arrested 2 men aged 25 and 35 — both Singaporeans.

They also found a 27-year-old Singaporean woman, and arrested her.
Although the almost 15,000 Erimin-5 tablets will surely raise eyebrows, the CNB focused on the large amount of ‘Ice’ it seized.
The 608g of ‘Ice’ is enough to sustain about 347 drug abusers for 1 week, it said.
While investigations into the 6 suspects are ongoing, the message from the latest raid is clear: Don’t do drugs.
