Three men have been arrested following an alleged illegal sale of MGO in Singapore.
The men, said to be crew members of a foreign-registered workboat, were reported to have been detained Sunday in the waters off northern Tuas following a joint operation by the Police Coast Guard (PCG) and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA).
Cash totalling S$3,501 ($2,500) was seized as part of the arrest operation.
"The PCG and the MPA take a serious view of illegal transaction of marine fuel in Singapore waters," a PCG statement read.
"The PCG will continue to conduct enforcement and security checks to prevent, deter and detect such illicit activities in Singapore waters."
