In older episodes, the programme may also promote and showcase the jobs or behind-the-scenes movements of Singapore police officers. Crime Watch’s modus operandi would typically comprise the following:
(1) sourcing of crimes for featuring in the next episode; (2) scripting for filming; (3) filming on the actual scene (no sets were used); (4) post-production work involving stitching, editing and sound editing; (5) internal reviewing; (6) re-editing work including narrating and sound-mixing; (7) external screen tests; (8) actual broadcasting on national TV; (9) manning the Crime Watch's hotline to receive and act upon tip-offs; and (10) collating data on viewership figures for the episode screened in different languages(for example,"神之以法"--the Chinese version).

The idea of Crime Watch was conceived when two unnamed senior police officers from the Criminal Investigation Department learned of the successes of "Crimestoppers" in the United States and Canada and "Crime Watch"(警訊) in Hong Kong. These police-sponsored televisual productions were broadcast on free-to-air public television networks in the respective countries with the aim of seeking public assistance in the solving of criminal cases with little or no leads. Buoyed by the popularity of these foreign programmes and needing to secure the help of the public in the prevention and solving of crimes, the leadership of the SPF actively pursued the option of starting a local variant of Crime Watch in Singapore.

Crimewatch is a Singaporean television series(not to be confused with Crimewatch UK) produced by the "Singapore Police Force" and the programme is broadcast on television by "MediaCrop TV Singapore".The documentary-drama focuses on how actual Police officers who had attended with a real case did their part by reconstructing the scenes in the shows. In older episodes, the programme may also promote and showcase the jobs or behind-the-scenes movements of Singapore police officers. Crime Watch’s modus operandi would typically comprise the following: (1) sourcing of crimes for featuring in the next episode; (2) scripting for filming; (3) filming on the actual scene (no sets were used); (4) post-production work involving stitching, editing and sound editing; (5) internal reviewing; (6) re-editing work including narrating and sound-mixing; (7) external screen tests; (8) actual broadcasting on national TV; (9) manning the Crime Watch's hotline to receive and act upon tip-offs; and (10) collating data on viewership figures for the episode screened in different languages(for example, "神之以法"--the Chinese version).

The idea of Crime Watch was conceived when two unnamed senior police officers from the Criminal Investigation Department learned of the successes of "Crimestoppers" in the United States and Canada and "Crime Watch"(警訊) in Hong Kong. These police-sponsored televisual productions were broadcast on free-to-air public television networks in the respective countries with the aim of seeking public assistance in the solving of criminal cases with little or no leads. Buoyed by the popularity of these foreign programmes and needing to secure the help of the public in the prevention and solving of crimes, the leadership of the SPF actively pursued the option of starting a local variant of Crime Watch in Singapore.


The first few iterations of the 20-odd minute docu-drama focused exclusively on public appeal and crime prevention. Typically, a re-construction of an unsolved case would be staged by a motley cast of former and currently-serving police officers supplemented by semi-professional actors supplied by Mediacorp, and this would be followed by an emotive appeal for eye-witnesses to contact the police non-emergency line with the assurance that all identities of tipsters would be kept strictly confidential. Crime prevention segments featured basic crime prevention advisories. Such cases are: robbery in homes, theft of and from vehicles, snatch theft, outrage of modesty and housebreaking, and the murder of an individual. These segments will consist of a mixture of a short-length re-enactment of solved or unsolved crimes, advisories given by the on-screen presenter(Police officer and Host for the show), interviews with members of partner organisations on crime prevention, and presentation slides highlighting crime prevention mnemonics in bullet-point form.


The charge of indifference was levied against the population in the pilot episode of Crime Watch (Episode 1;1986). A 20-year-old Chinese guy, Ng, was out on a romantic date with his girlfriend at a park bench. He was abruptly, brutally and fatally physically assaulted by a group of youths in a public area next to the void deck of a public housing flat at a location called And Mio Kio in Singapore. Despite the occurrence of the crime at the coordinates of public and prime-time visuality, no witnesses had yet come forward to provide the police with workable leads on the case. This public passivity necessitated steps taken by the police to re-trace the victim's footsteps on screen. The producers opted for a realistic reconstruction of the scenes leading up to the commission of crime, detailing with disturbing realism how a romantic landscape was fractured and transformed into a landscape of death in the space of a night. The re-enactment ended with a cut to a real-life interview with the victims’ grieving parents who emotively appeal on behalf of the police for eye-witnesses to come forward. The civic outrage at witnessing this public inaction subsequently translated to several calls to the police hotline following the broadcast of the pilot, which eventually led to the arrests of the culprits. This episode provided not only a glimpse of the potential investigative successes of an extended run of Crime Watch but also provided a window of understanding to the authorities on the need for civic engagement. Additionally, it supplied the basic framework for the reconstruction of unsolved cases, which would be re-used for the remainder of the first phase of Crime Watch.

Episode 3 of Crimewatch aired on 25 July 1987. It was a re-attachment of a case about a week before Christmas in 1985. The case was about a crime detective, Goh Ah Khia, who was fatally shot by Ah Huat (also known as Lim Keng Peng). The episode showed two victims who had escaped from their residential unit when their tenant from downstairs, who was later found to be Ah Huat, had been drunk and turned aggressive towards the victims. After returning to their units, the victims found out that their handbag had gone missing and Ah Huat had driven off with his friend around nine o'clock. When the police approached a suspicious individual who was running away, Detective Goh Ah Khia was fatally shot and soon passed away. After an island-wide search for Ah Huat's whereabouts, the police received a tip-off and tracked down Ah Huat at a coffee shop. Ah Huat did not cooperate and took out his gun. Due to the police's quick response, Ah Huat was shot to death and was brought to justice.
Ah Huat had also robbed and shot a restaurant owner before Detective Goh Ah Khia passed away. </gallery>



Other scenes for reference(1987,Ep3)

From 1989 onwards, Crimewatch began to spot a new third segment: ‘Police in Action’. This would feature re-enactments of crimes successfully solved by the police, to demonstrate police professionalism at work. The production process would be nearly identical to the unsolved crimes segment, featuring police officers as part of the cast. However, a notable difference was that officers were now mostly called to play themselves on screen since the depiction of successfully solved crimes was deemed to be beneficial to the morale of the investigators involved. Asking officers to play themselves was an act of recognition for their valued contributions to the force, and reduced the likelihood of misrepresentations of officers in action. This move towards securing the image of the police also came in the wake of concerns that the police were being portrayed as insufficiently robust law enforcers on Crime Watch. Within the new political-economic order, public imaging became crucial to corporatised state organs, and the police would be seen as the precursors of institutionalised image management.

In the opening sequences of each episode in the first phase(Pilot) of Crime Watch, scenes from a call operations centre are interspersed with shots taken from a fast response car patrolling the streets, as male frontline officers are seen communicating expediently with female call operators (Episode 01/1986). This professionalised image of the cordial police family is used to frame the seamlessness of computerised communications, highlighting the twinned objectives of image and informational management, even whilst reaffirming the contemporaneous gendered division of labour. The implementation of the non-emergency/ Crime Watch police hotline in anticipation of the premiere of Crime Watch is hence a means of establishing a further point of contact with the public. The flow of information through this hotline is most likely to be unidirectional from the public to the police, but it nonetheless satisfies the conditions required of the programme: of activating the member of the public to take responsibility as a witness by producing a cathartic sensation through the act of reporting; and of generating more information on criminal activities. Even when an individual is not a police officer, one can do his/her part in the fight against crime.
