Apparently the suspect is a police officer of 14 years...

Infact he was given an award for his excellent work in Bedok being stated as the PRIDE of the force - http://goo.gl/IYMdA this is a google cache, the actual page is no longer there, SPF must have taken it down....

Interesting stuff.

Well a cop should know how best to kill someone. And they are the only category here who could possibly have easy access to a pistol.

But as was already stated, both victims were slashed to death, not shot. Additionally, he was in debt, had personal domestic problems, and was facing an internal disciplinary process.

He's already back in Singapore at the Cantonment complex.

I suspect it involved initial corruption (over the supposed theft of goods from a Cisco safe box), mixed in with a standover tactic by a bankrupt cop that the victims probably refused and then some undoubtedly racist remarks (on both sides) followed by violence.

Personally, if Malay man goes nuts... I get the hell out of dodge.

Never forget where the phrase "run amok" comes from.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_amok

"Running amok, sometimes referred to as simply amok,[1] also spelled amuk, from the Malay,[2] is "an episode of sudden mass assault against people or objects usually by a single individual following a period of brooding that has traditionally been regarded as occurring especially in Malaysian culture"

(10:1 the son tried to stand in the way of the cop driving off in his car... only in Singapore would a person sacrifice their life for a car).

Wow! I never thought Malaysia/Indonesia could contribute to English. They have contributed and how! :lol:

From Yahoo:

The full extent of the relationship between the two remains unknown, but Malaysia's New Straits Times claimed, via "an SPF source", that Iskandar and Tan Chee Heong were “romantically involvedâ€Â
