Unsolved crimes in Singapore


Singapore is blessed with one of the lowest crime rates in the world. However, as these cases prove, low crime doesn’t mean no crime – and innocent lives still get lost in the process.

These cases may still be open but hopefully, with new forensic technologies and leads, solving them will be within reach so as to bring closure to the victims and their families.
