Wallet, phone go missing in army camp, but CCTV not working

[Vulcann]

Been going there for my non-ICT IPPTs during my last few years with them and I had always placed my valuables in one of the many lockers provided.

 

Now that this Mr Gan had revealed all was not well and that his stuff actually got Ali Ba Ba'ed :wacko:

 

Maybe bros going inside camps for IPPTs play safe just bring along 11B can liao [laugh]

 

But the greater issue which was implied is the security issue.

 

Non-working CCTVs in camps?

 

Isolated incident perhaps?

 

[rolleyes]

Wallet, phone go missing in army camp, but CCTV not working

Published on Mar 26, 2013

 

I WENT for my remedial training at Bedok Camp on March 17.

 

I placed my belongings in one of the lockers provided at the ground level. During the break, I went to check on my belongings and found that my wallet and mobile phone had gone missing. I immediately reported the incident to the army personnel at the training centre.

 

I requested to view the closed-circuit television camera recording as my locker was in an area that was under CCTV surveillance. However I was told that the CCTV camera at the ground level was down.

 

I have always thought that military premises are secure, but this incident has made me think otherwise.

 

There should at least be annual checks on CCTV systems in military camps, so that any spoilt cameras can be fixed without delay.

i would rather think the cctv is working but not revealing to the writer. they may conduct their own investigation, nobody get to the cctv footage unless he has a warrant, just my thought

Army camps got a lot of alil babas one. This is especially true nearer to QM stock taking/LRIs when you can see people start stealing GE equipment from each other to make up for their shortfall.

[Tarzan666]

[Freestylers09]

even clients auditors wana see our cctv last time for security audit purposes, we also reject them straight away

QM stocktake or LRI (especially LRI) people don't steal, they "borrow"! Even QM also will start calling other camps/unit QM to borrow things for upcoming LRI, then send the storemen out with tonner or minibus to go and collect. Signal store IC will also do the same, all will start calling their contacts in other units for help.

 

LRI finish then return back.

Not surprising, army camps don't like to spend to repair their building or infrastructure unless it drops from it's mountings

It's the army.... You can file an official report to them but some lazy chap must have brushed him aside to avoid the paper work.

[ChickenMob]

i tot that we are able to lock the lockers??

how come still tio Ali Ba Baed...

I don't think the CCTV was sabotaged, but it is entirely possible that it's an inside job and that someone who knew the CCTV was down chose that time to kapor the guy's stuff.

The PTI's and those outsourced (certis cisco?) Physical Trainers have the skeleton key for the lockers.. I know cos i forgot my locker password during my last IPPT at khatib camp, and needed them to open the locker for me..
