The Curious Case of the Hidden Pinhole: How a 21‑Year‑Old Shook Up a Campus
On Wednesday, March 7th, the police at Jurong Police Division swooped in on a young man who had been pulling the plug on the public’s peace and order. This isn’t your typical “was on the street at night” crime, but more like a stealthy, camera‑freaking villain. In a nutshell, the 21‑year‑old was caught after snatching a laptop, a mobile phone, and two splash‑y pinhole cameras—which might look like tiny raisins if you squint.
Why It Matters
- The suspect was allegedly involved in a string of similar mishaps, which the police say are “not an isolated incident.”
- Should the court find him guilty, the guy could be looking at a fine that would leave his bank account feeling a pinch, up to $1,000.
- And if he’s hit with charges for disrespecting a woman’s modesty, the sentence could be a year in jail—or a fine, or a mix of both.
The Hidden Nifty Pinhole at NTU
On Monday, March 1st, a tenant of the National University’s Nanyang Drive discovered a hidden camera of the kind you’d see in spy movies but sized like a thumbnail.
According to local media: the camera was cheekily tucked into a plastic hook attached to the door near the toilet bowl. The hook looked like an ordinary air‑freshener holder, but it was inexplicably perched just above the vent and just on the same level as the toilet’s flush‑line. The resident who found it—who was actually a contract printer—realized it was a new addition.
- The hook itself had a freshener pack dangling from it, giving the whole setup a bizarre, almost IKEA-meets‑Merriam‑Webster vibe.
- Inside the camera lay an SD card, but no footage has been confirmed. The mystery remains: did the “spied-on” watch reveal any secrets?
Other Facts You’ll Like
When a cleaning staff member ran into a woman who had spotted the weird hook, she described how she felt something was off and decided to contact the cops. According to the story, the woman felt shocked to see a camera in a restroom, a place where most people only expect a soap dispenser and a toilet paper holder.
Police investigations are still ongoing, and we’re keeping our fingers crossed that they get to the bottom of one of the most oddly placed gadgets of the year.
Keep an eye on the audit of your leaning office chairs—never know when a hidden camera might be at the ready. If the legal drama continues to unfold, it could easily turn into the story Netflix wants and, perhaps, a courtroom drama that everyone will discuss. Stay tuned, and hopefully the day will end with a giggle out of this whole scenario. ¡Bye!
