The Bukit Panjang Neighbourhood Police Centre (NPC) is appealing for information about a boy wanted to assist with investigations into a shop theft case at Hillion Mall.
In a Facebook post on Friday (31 October), police said the offence occurred on 29 August 2025 in the mall’s 7-Eleven outlet.
They shared an image of the boy, who was seen wearing a Liverpool football jersey.
Police urged anyone with relevant information to contact them via the official channels listed in the post.
The post quickly gained traction online, with many netizens expressing concern about the public circulation of the boy’s image, especially since he appears to be a minor.
“He’s just a boy,” a commentor wrote.
“Publicly shaming him will make things worse and could ruin his chances to change.”
