Raffles City’s management assisting police in Cortina investigations
Channel NewsAsia - 1 hour 1 minute ago
SINGAPORE: Raffles City’s management said it is working closely with the police in their investigations into the nearly S$8 million theft at Cortina Watch on December 26.
It also told Channel NewsAsia that it is satisfied with the level of security at the shopping mall.
On Tuesday, it was business as usual at the Cortina Watch retail outlet at Raffles City. There are no less than ten cameras mounted on the shop’s ceiling and whatever pictures these devices have captured will likely aid the police in their investigations.
While a spokesperson for Cortina Watch declined to disclose any details about the ongoing investigations, Raffles City management staff who are also assisting the police said they have handed over the videos as requested.
Joanna Low, general manager, Raffles City, said: "We have adequate security and we are very confident of that. Besides us keeping vigilance, the tenants would also have to be more vigilant in their in—house security measures."
Security providers Certis Cisco said a hallmark of a good security system is one which does not have a single point of failure.
Charles Loh, managing director, Security Consulting, Certis Cisco, said: "A good security system must have three components — access control, surveillance system and intrusion detection system. What could have gone wrong is that there is a single point of failure and you are unable to detect the intrusion.
"This may also be a case where the system is not working the way it is supposed to be, there is no proper check—and—balance system."
