SINGAPORE – A man appeared dazed when police officers responding to a call approached him near a lamp post around midnight on Oct 21.
E-vaporisers and e-vaporiser pods were later discovered in the 31-year-old’s car, which was found stationary and positioned against the flow of traffic in Punggol Central.
The police alerted Health Sciences Authority (HSA) officers, who seized two e-vaporisers and 30 e-vaporiser pods, the authority said in a statement on Oct 22.
“Laboratory testing confirmed that the seized pods contained etomidate, and investigations are ongoing,” HSA said.
Chua Beng Kai Jeremy was hauled to a district court on Oct 22 for allegedly trafficking etomidate-laced vapes, or Kpods. He was handed one charge of etomidate possession for the purpose of trafficking.
