She was suspected of drug consumption.
The teenager’s arrest was included in a news release from the CNB on Friday (14 June).
In the statement, the CNB said it conducted an islandwide anti-drug operation from 10 to 14 June.
The raids took place across locations in Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Bukit Batok and Toa Payoh.
In total, 71 suspected drug offenders were arrested during the raids, CNB said.
One of them was a 15-year-old girl who was a Secondary Three student.
Suspected of drug consumption, she was the youngest person arrested during the operation in June.
