Joyce Tan Hwee Leng gave the police detailed but inconsistent descriptions of what purportedly happened, resulting in a search for suspects that went on for about three hours.

SINGAPORE: A woman who did not want to lend money to her colleague decided to make up a story that she was robbed and called the police to make a detailed report.

The court heard that Tan worked as a server at a restaurant where the executive chef asked to borrow S$6,700 from her in March. She described to the police in detail the men's estimated age, what they were wearing and that they asked her for cigarettes.
