Jail for man who committed traffic offences while out on bail over vape-related charge
August 26, 2025
|The Straits Times
A man who was out on bail over plans to steal vape-related items seized by the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) ran into trouble again when he crashed a car into some railings.
Instead of alerting the authorities, he panicked and ran home, leaving the car behind.
On Aug 25, Elvin Suriaganandhan, 23, was sentenced to six weeks and 10 days' jail, and disqualified from holding or obtaining all classes of driving licences for a period of a year following his release date.
He had pleaded guilty to charges, including driving a car without due care and attention, and performing an act that could obstruct the course of justice — an offence linked to the vape-related items.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Xavier Tan told the court that some time before March 25, 2024, a Malaysian man identified as Chua Wee Ming, 34, imported vape-related items into Singapore. The goods were subsequently seized by the HSA.
