SINGAPORE: Eight Singaporeans were arrested on Wednesday (Sept 10) during the first major Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) operation against vaping since stiffer penalties were introduced on Sept 1.

The six-hour-long operation involved more than 20 personnel, including those from CNB’s Special Task Force, which carries out high-risk operations such as vehicle pursuits and house raids.
