SINGAPORE – A 49-year-old man will be charged on Monday with possession of scheduled weapons in a public place and drug-related offences.

He was arrested on Saturday at a residential unit in York Hill, two hours after the police received a report about an online video showing a man wielding a samurai sword in public, the police said on Sunday.

Preliminary investigations showed that the video was uploaded on the man’s Facebook page, the police added.

The police then discovered and seized scheduled weapons, along with drug utensils, when they raided the man’s residence.
