CNB investigates allegations that its treatment of teen 'Justin' led to suicide

SINGAPORE — The Central Narcotics Bureau of Singapore on Wednesday said that it is "fully" investigating the circumstances of the arrest of a male teenager who allegedly died by suicide following his encounters with the bureau's officers.

"But till , nothing. My MP, Sylvia Lim, responded via email and followed up with a personal visit with advice and offer to help. Her sincerity touched me deeply," she added.The CNB detailed a timeline of its interaction with the boy, referred to as "Justin" in its post, stating that it had investigated the teenager as he was suspected of trafficking a Class A controlled drug online.

The bureau also added that it is aware that "Justin" had died on 16 September after a fall "from height" and that police are investigating his death. "She was told that she could contact the Ministers directly, at any time, on this matter," added the bureau. "The CNB has also arranged for psychological support to be provided to her during this difficult period. The CNB understands 'Justin'’’s mother’s grief and will continue to render assistance to her."

"The eight hours of waiting and worrying was unwarranted," she said, claiming that her son was not allowed to reply to her text messages and that she was only informed by an officer that she was allowed to bail him out of custody much later.
