SINGAPORE: Police arrested a man suspected of loanshark harassment on Wednesday.

Investigations revealed that the suspect had scrawled loanshark-related graffiti and splashed paint in some housing estates, including Serangoon North, Hougang and Ang Mo Kio areas.

The 24-year-old man, who is believed to be a debtor-turned-runner, was nabbed at his residence in Woodlands on Wednesday morning.

First-time offenders may be fined up to S$40,000 or imprisoned for up to three years, or both. They are also liable for caning if they have caused damage to property or harm to any person.
