A resident of Tampines shared a couple of videos of what appeared to be faeces smeared on the wall and pillar at the void deck of her Housing & Development Board (HDB) block on Dec. 24.
“Disgusted” by seemingly faeces smeared all around void deck
The resident who goes by the name “Fat Cat” on Facebook uploaded a post to share this sighting at Blk 831 Tampines Street 83.
She shared three videos of the faeces on the floor, a pillar and a wall at the HDB void deck with the caption “Literally public toilet”.
The smearing on the wall and pillar looked like it was marked out by a human hand.
The resident told Mothership that she spotted the faeces below her block on Dec. 24 at 3pm and was “shock(ed) and disgusted”. She believes those were human faeces based on the “colour and texture”.
As it was a Sunday and a public holiday, the town council was closed, so she made an online report via the One Service app.
Mothership has reached out to the Tampines Town Council for an update.
