The terrorist who got away!
For those who do not know, this fella was caught trying to plot some terrorist attack at one of our rail stations.
During one of those family visits, he escaped and has been on the run for more than a year.
Many questions were raised about the integrity of the security of the country after his escape. Additional checks and procedures for clearance at the various exit and entry point to the country was implemented.
Everyone was wondering what this fella who do when he is out there somewhere.
Will he plot another bombing?
Will he be successful this time around?
Where will he go?
What will he do?...
Today, the law finally caught up with him. He was arrested and is now in the custody of the Malaysian police waiting for transfer back to Singapore.
Well, at least now, we can worry less about one more fella trying to do harm to us.
It is a small consolation. But it is better than none.

Finally!! I totally forgot about him. I couldn't even remember his name when I saw his face. 
His escape has certainly taught our police and citizens one good thing, which is Not to be too complacent with our national security.
We may be quite safe but not 100% safe.

Yeah, reminds me of the motto "LOW crime doesn't mean NO crime"!
Well, it is good to hear that they caught him.
It is still a wonder how he managed to swim across the straits even when the coast has added surveillance and patrols on both side of the straits.

There are always ple following up on things which are not fully done.. ON top of that, newpaper also reported that during his 1 yr of hiding and running, he's plotting some things against singapore too..
SO even if we have caught him, but the terror is not over yet, and instead, it has become wider, if he happens to get in touch with his fellow terrors...
