Cops probing TikToker who allegedly rearranged National Day floral decoration to say 'porn'
A TikTok user is being investigated for mischief after allegedly rearranging a National Day floral decoration to say "porn" and then posting a video of it.
The police received a report on Aug 6 at about 10.45am that the decorations in Pandan Gardens were damaged and rearranged to form another word.
The heart-shaped decoration by the Pandan Gardens Residents’ Network (PGRN) was supposed to say "SG 59 PGRN". But one of the flowers had been moved to change the G to an O. So it said "SG 59 PORN" instead.
This was shown in a video posted by a TikTok user named Kevin Singh. The video has since been removed.
The Ayer Rajah Community Club posted on its Friends of Ayer Rajah Facebook page: "It has come to our attention that there has been a recent vandalism of our beautiful National Day decorations near Block 404 Pandan Gardens Road.
"The hard work and effort put in by the Pandan Gardens Residents’ Network and residents have been marred by this distasteful act.
"We have made a police report and an investigation is currently underway. We urge everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the authorities."
