THREE youths were charged on Friday with the murder of 19-year-old polytechnic student Darren Ng in Downtown East last month, bringing the total to eight suspects arrested so far.
Chong Rui Hong, 18, Ng Wei Lun, 18, and Jason Chew Wei Beng, 20, were ordered to be remanded in Central police division till Nov 26.
The judge also issued an order that they could be taken out to assist police in investigations.

The trio is believed to have joined a group who hacked polytechnic student Darren to death with choppers at the Downtown East entertainment hub after a gang-related dispute on Oct 30.
Four alleged accomplices were first arrested on Nov 13.
At the mention of their cases on Tuesday, Chen Wei Zhen, 19, Ho Wui Ming, 20, and Tang Jia Min, 21, were ordered to be detained at the Changi Medical Complex in Changi prison. Edward Tay Wei Loong, 18, is recovering in hospital after injuring himself while fleeing from the police.

The fifth suspect, Louis Tong Qing Yao, 17 - who was arrested on Nov 2 for illegal moneylending activities - was charged for Darren's murder on Nov 10. On Tuesday, he was ordered to be remanded in the Central police division to assist in investigations. He also faces three loanshark harassment charges after he allegedly scribbled graffiti in Bishan and Serangoon North and splashed paint at a flat in Hougang
.
Two suspected accomplices -
Stillwell Ong Keat Pin, 19, and Ho Wei Quan - are still at large.


Unk Dicko's Comments:
Kudos to all the field officers out there involved in the relentless hunt for these 3 samseng killers. You can be sure that the public is pleased to see this. The police and the government cannot rest until this scourge of resurgence in teenage violence is completely put down...and rubbed out.
So there were 10 rotten Humpty-Dumptys carrying parangs sitting on the wall.
First 3 were caught, 1 literally fell down and 1 more while on the run went on a spree of crime.
5 + 3 = 8 caught.
Eight have fallen from their high pedestal of crime, secret society and murder.
Only 2 more to go. The police said they are still at large...but as you can see their names are already known.
Once that happens it will only be a matter of time before the other 2 rotten Humpty Dumptys will also fall.

Ps: To ensure they do not escape, perhaps the MHA could issue their photos to the media and press. And just like the "heartbeat molester" ...Singapore is so small, there's NO WHERE THIS KIND OF SCUMS CAN HIDE FOREVER. Yes, they may run but cannot hide for long.
More than 4 million pairs of eyes will be looking out for them...how to hide?

The school background of all these 40 odd samsengs nabbed SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY CHECKED. It would not surprise me at all that everyone of them are still LINKED to MANY of the present students in their former schools or in those schools they have some "control and influence". ( Remember the 19 nincompoops , many heavily tattooed, who turned up in court to show gang support to their arrested "brothers"....these are not all they have in their gangs. They have many, many more. Remember the large numbers at the funeral wake of the victim...many of the opposing gang members would have been there too. Press reports said more than a thousand were there !)
If the Police Intelligence Unit and the CID is up to it, they would have captured all the beautiful snapshots of many of the suspected gang members of FHS that had the fued with 369.
In the coming weeks and months even these FHS chaps would feel the heat...not just 369.
Some may already have over-exposed themselves and captured so clearly on TV during their rantings. Police and SSB officers will pick them up at leisure.

A GROUP of assailants shouted "369" in Hokkien and flashed a victory sign after slashing a youth to death in a fight, according to Sin Chew Daily.
The daily reported that the brawl broke out when Ng Wei Jie, 19, and his two friends were confronted by five men at the Downtown East shopping mall in Pasir Ris, Singapore, at about 5.30pm last Saturday.

Apparently, Ng and his friends had stared at the men, who had tattoos on their bodies, at a fast-food restaurant.
The two groups subsequently adjourned to an open space where Ng had a "talk" with the leader. However, this ended in a fight.
The daily reported that eye-witnesses saw a man from the bigger group whip out a vegetable knife and hacked Ng while his friends ran away.
The suspects reportedly shouted "369" in Hokkien and showed a victory sign before escaping.
However, local newspapers have reported today that four of the suspected assailants have been picked up by the police. They are being held under murder charges, which carries the death penalty and investigations are still ongoing.

Unk Dicko's Comments

I have checked out most of the forums, comments and news about this extremely brutal and senseless massacre...by a bunch of the most cowardly samseng kias imaginable. Almost everyone out there is greatly outraged by the brutal action of this gang of samsengs from "369". They are not that young anymore ranging from 18 -20 in age. That is the age when many of our NS men in the SAF are given great responsibility in handling "live" arms, weapons, explosives and ammunition. The age where boys become men and leaders.

The age of maturity and responsibility in defending our people and our nation.

But what do we have here in this latest gang-inspired killing?

A bunch of good for nothing scumbags, all geared in their gangland attire outfit of black, sporting

their weird gangland tattoos, openly advertising as a "come on" about who they are, with all their

purported macho bravado ( that's why there were at least 10 of them, like a herd, strength in numbers is their greatest secret)...and openly looking for incidental trouble or whatever they could engineer to make their day "memorable".

Well, their day will be most memorable indeed. In fact, as I used to tell those SS characters I was dealing with, seriously..." you had your FUN and your EXCITEMENT at the expense of innocent people. Now, let's see what fun you will have when we turn your day into night, and your night into day!". And that was only for those not involved with murder!

The poor victim - Darren Ng

I understand from my sources he was a nice and good former pupil of Gongshang Primary Sch.

At 19, the only son in the family, he had all to live for as he pursued his Diploma at the Republic Poly. He was a quiet chap and even shy as was described. He was in the R P waterpolo team.

[ This is an update after this original post was first published ]

There are reports on the net that Darren was sacked from RP for possible gang related activity and that he was only taken back in after appeal, a few weeks before this killing. When he was in Primary School he was as reported a generally ok student, no problem with SS links then.

At his funeral wake, the 2 friends who were with him when they were attacked were chased away by family members...when they came to the wake ( according to TNP report ). This signalled to everyone that those 2 friends are involved in secret societies.

The youth gangsters from 369

They were all laughing as they slashed at poor Darren with choppers and a parang...shouting out

LOUDLY in Hokkien for the large crowd to hear, advertising for their SS gang ''we are 369, we are 369 !!! ".

Before going to Downtown East, this group had hidden knives, choppers and a parang in their various bags and pouches.

So, they were fully armed before anything had happened. PREMEDITATION and PRE-PREPARATION shows deliberate intention to inflict HARM, or worse DEATH on anyone whom they instigate into a fight.

The penalty under our LAW is DEATH BY HANGING !

Many forummers are not satisfied by even this. They have strongly voiced out that these 369 cowards/killers should be HANGED PUBLICLY...as a strong warning to all others bent on wanton killing of innocent people.

I can understand their strong reaction!

During the first week of the Japanese Occupation of S'pore in WW2, there was rampant stealing and thefts. The Japanese Military Administration gave the "go ahead" for making an example of the first 4 thieves caught. The public was ordered to go to a place outside Outram Prison where a Jap executioner then proceeded to chop off the heads of the 4 men.

The heads were ordered to be displayed openly near Bras Basah Rd and near Cathay Building...for weeks!

Stealing stopped.

Crime stopped.

People were not afraid to leave their doors opened.

What Next?

Our govt, police and security forces have focussed their attention on the dangers of external terrorism infiltrating into our peaceful homeland. Much of our time, money and resources have been channeled into this area. So well and good.

No one had died of any terrorist act committed in S'pore. Our one only very sad casualty was the late Ms Lo Hwei Yen, a victim of the Mumbai terrorist attack.

But the scourge of secret society and triads in their various off-shoots has not gone away.

They are still around, no doubt on a smaller scale...but still widespread !

And they are still terrorising our innocent people in the schools, at malls, coffee-shops, at playgrounds, at arcades, in void decks, in fact anywhere. Most prople are still too fearful to report any harassments by SS elements because of the threats they have received.

Unk Dicko knows fully.

I strongly feel that our govt, with all the fantastic resources we have, should easily decimate and cripple this scourge and menace, once and for all.

To do that...they need to come out with a new TASK FORCE with the sole purpose of wiping out the gang problem for good. The TF should be led by the BEST officers, unafraid for themselves and must encourage the fullest input and contributions of ideas and solutions by all levels of S'pore society.

All Singaporeans should contribute and support...like the way we tackled SARS and H1N1 as a nation, as a people.

Unk Dicko will never shy away from contributing towards the security and future of our country.

The buck stops here!
