The woman had been captured on police surveillance cameras pouring water on a 24-year-old man near Balam Road on Thursday morning. The police said they were alerted to the incident at 7.30am. But she had fled the scene before the police arrived. The woman attempted to flee to Indonesia by ferry from the Singapore Cruise Centre, but the vessel was intercepted by the Police Coast Guard before it left Singapore's territorial waters, the police said, after a coordinated effort between multiple agencies to track her. She was arrested at 11.30am on the day of the incident.
The police established the woman's identity with investigations revealing she knew the victim. Her face was masked during the attack, the police said. She also changed into a brown-coloured outfit when boarding the ferry, images showed, with a black dress she was wearing during the alleged assault seized.
