A Singapore woman was arrested for allegedly threatening arson and loansharking, facing up to five years in prison.

A 37-year-old woman was arrested in Singapore on February 3, 2026, over allegations of loanshark harassment after a threatening note warning of arson was found outside a Bedok North Street 2 residence. Police identified her using surveillance footage and investigative follow-up, and she is set to be charged on February 5. The offense carries up to five years in prison, a $50,000 fine, and up to six strokes of the cane—though caning does not apply to women. Authorities reiterated their zero-tolerance policy on loansharking and urged the public to report suspicious activities by calling 999.
