Yesterday was the day he was supposed to complete his national service; instead, footballer Shakir Hamzah found himself starting a four-day stint in detention.
The LionsXII defender, 20, was handed the sentence after being charged with going absent without official leave (Awol) last month.
"Police NSF Special Constable Muhammad Shakir Hamzah was charged with one count of absence without official leave and one count of disobedience of orders," a spokesman for the Singapore Police Force confirmed.
The Straits Times understands that on May 17, Shakir left his work duties without the permission of his supervisors and travelled to Kuantan for a Malaysian Super League clash that evening between the LionsXII and Pahang.
