Meanwhile in Singapore . . .
Most times, smugglers will try to be creative in hiding their goods when crossing boarders . . . then, there are those smugglers that lean on the “just stuff it down your pants” method.
An unnamed 45 year old was stopped in his car by officers with the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) at a Tuas Checkpoint.
Officers heard meowing sounds coming from the dude’s trousers, which obviously prompted further checks .
Turns out, dude had FOUR KITTENS in his pants!
The case has been referred to the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority for further investigation, while the kittens are being cared for while in quarantine.
The problem with the smuggled kittens are that their health status is unknown, and they could introduce exotic diseases, like rabies, to Singapore.
It’s a law under the Animals and Birds Act, where the importation of any animals/birds into Singapore sans licence is illegal, and offenders face fines up to $10,000 and/or spend up to a year in jail.
