SINGAPORE: A 41-year-old man has been charged over manufacturing "kpods" at home.
Kpods are vapes laced with drugs, such as ketamine or etomidate. Mohammed Akil Abdul Rahim was on Thursday (Jul 17) given five more charges, including the possession of e-vaporisers, or vapes, vape pods and other components.
He was found on Dec 11, 2024, with hundreds of such items in a Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat at Block 296B Yishun Street 22.
These included 569 empty pod casings, 1,485 pod covers, 100 loose vape pods and disposable vapes.
