Suspect vs criminal

This is not something that Singapore's MSM dwells on, but for the record: Mas Selamat has never been charged, tried or convicted of anything related to terrorism. His arrests in Indonesia were for immigration offences and a fake ID card, and as he was being held under the ISA, he has not been charged with any offense in Singapore.

2003 arrest reports from news indicate "to assist authorities"

as someone erased, the 2003 official statement is that he was arrested in 2003 to "Assist Investigation"

An anonymous account erased the references as "contentious"

see http://BlueNorway.Org for some of the content that was referenced until this is erased by criminal parties as well... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.9.59.193 (talk) 00:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kaki Bukit

In the Childhood section of the article, it is mentioned that Mas Selamat grew up in Kaki Bukit. However, "Kaki Bukit" links to the Kaki Bukit in Perlis, Malaysia. I supposed that the "Kaki Bukit" mentioned in the article means Kaki Bukit, Singapore, but I am not sure. Could anyone confirm this? --Joshua ^{Say "hi" to me!}_{What I've done?} 09:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Altered the link to "Bartley Road" since there is no dedicated article for Kaki Bukit in Singapore.

Which date of re-capture is right?

This article contradicts itself. At the beginnin it says that he was recaptured on April 1st, then the last section says on 8 May. Anyone correct this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.142.184 (talk) 12:52, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Read again: he was captured on April 1st, but the announcement wasn't made until May 8. Will clarify. Jpatokal (talk) 13:26, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for clarifying —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.142.184 (talk) 03:58, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
