The police said, “Preliminary investigations revealed that the man, who is a public servant and an authorised recipient of classified information on post-circuit breaker plans, had allegedly shared the information via WhatsApp on Jun 11, 2020, with members of a private WhatsApp chat group who were not authorised to receive the classified information.”

Wait, it has been leaked since 11 June 2020?

“The information was subsequently further disseminated from this chat group, resulting in wider circulation of the message.”

Reader Bao: IS BUBBLE TEA COMING BACK OR NOT!?

Investigations are now ongoing. Anyone found guilty of wrongful communication of information could be fined up to S$2,000 and imprisoned for up to two years.

The police said, “The Government takes a serious view of any wrongful communication of confidential information and will deal firmly with anyone who does so.”
