Two Chinese nationals, Zhang Yongxiang and Feng Yunlong, were arrested for allegedly burgling a landed estate in Singapore. Police took them to the scene of the crime, where they led officers to a construction site adjacent to the burgled property, revealing how they gained entry.
Two foreign men who allegedly burgled a landed estate in the Holland Road area on Dec 16 entered a home through an adjacent house that was under construction. On Dec 26, police officers took Chinese nationals Zhang Yongxiang, 52, and Feng Yunlong, 38, to the three-storey property with two cars parked inside. To the right of the house was a construction site of a semi-detached house.
According to a notice board at the site, the building permit was issued in June 2023, and construction is expected to be completed in July 2025. Zhang arrived in a police car at 10.25am. He was flanked by three police officers and had his arms and ankles cuffed. A police officer asked Zhang which unit he went to, to which he replied in Mandarin: “The neighbouring one.” They then walked towards the burgled unit and stopped outside its side gate, before Zhang left in a police car. About five minutes later, Feng arrived. He led police officers to the construction site, but unlike Zhang, kept his head down the whole time. He stopped at the entrance of the construction site and gestured to a gap between a blue tarpaulin and wall, telling officers in Mandarin: “We entered by this gap.” ST understands that Zhang purportedly scaled over into the victim’s house from the third floor of the construction site. Feng is believed to have kept a lookout outside the two units. The duo stole a Cartier Roadster watch valued at S$8,800 and a Casio Edifice watch worth $150. In front of the burgled unit, police officers took out a map and asked Feng how he left the place. Feng said they walked out of the estate towards the main road, where they boarded a bus. The house was burgled on Dec 16 around 9pm while the owners were away. The victims reported the incident on Dec 1
