Some maybe caught but some will remain free. Especially in gayland, many of the lorongs damn dark, run at least got chance, no run confirm wear rolex. Anyway it an undercover ops, so mata strength ard 10 matas tops.

what do u mean run is useless? u think the poodles will launch a manhunt for bookies and punters? pls, the poodles got better thing to do. There were examples of criminal on wanted list living with families for donkey years before they were caught. If you had ever do guard duty during your NSF days, you will see the awol list in the guard room. Seldom were those ppl caught, those that were caught were mostly because kenna detain by matas for other offences or damn sway kenna roadblock. while singapore not big, the chances of kenna caught also very low.
