RADICALISATION IN SINGAPORE - Reporting to authorities saves lives: past detainees, counsellors
Counsellors and former detainees are urging families to report early signs of radicalisation, saying that timely intervention can save lives. One individual who was radicalised in his teens and reported by his own family, attests to that. He says his life might have ended prematurely, if he hadn't been stopped from joining a terror group. He tells Aslam Shah how quickly extremist content online had consumed him, and how his family's action changed his life.
