SINGAPORE - A man has been jailed for importing chewing tobacco products in the first such prosecution of its kind, the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) said on Thursday (July 20).

Kavinthiran, a 32-year-old Singaporean man, was given a four-week jail sentence on Thursday for importing almost 5,000 sachets of "Hans Chhap Tobacco" worth an estimated $9,200.

The sachets contained 55kg of khaini tobacco, a type of chewing tobacco prohibited in Singapore.

HSA said that this is the first time anyone has been prosecuted in court under the amended Tobacco (Control of Advertisements and Sale) Act, which came into force on Aug 1 last year. It implemented the ban on emerging tobacco products, including chewing tobacco.

It is an offence under the act to import, distribute, sell or offer for sale khaini tobacco.

Kavinthiran was stopped by Immigration & Checkpoints Authority officers while driving a Singapore-registered vehicle from Johor Baru to Woodlands Checkpoint on Jan 3 this year.

Checks revealed 4,585 sachets labelled as "Hans Chhap Tobacco" in the vehicle, hidden in various areas including the rear side panel of the car boot and side door panels.

He had rented the vehicle for the purpose of importing the tobacco products into Singapore.

Kavinthiran had agreed with an acquaintance in Malaysia to transport the banned chewing tobacco into Singapore, and would be paid for a successful delivery, investigations showed.

HSA in its statement reminded the public that the import, distribution, sale or offer for sale of all chewing tobacco products are prohibited.

"The enhanced tobacco control measures are intended to discourage tobacco consumption and better protect Singaporeans from the adverse health effects of tobacco," said HSA.

Those convicted can be jailed up to six months and/or fined up to $10,000 for the first offence.

Repeat offenders face double those penalties, and any chewing tobacco imported will be seized and confiscated.

Those who have information on such illegal acts can call the HSA's Tobacco Regulation Branch at 6684-2036 or 6684-2037.
