A tourist was locked up in immigration detention in Singapore for over 40 hours after an airline gave him the wrong advice for entering the country.
Australian Richard Grant, from Darwin, was refused entry to Thailand when it was found he did not have evidence of a negative Covid PCR test. He claimed he was told by the Jetstar airline he wouldn't need one.
He was returned to Singapore, where he had transited, and was promptly stuck in a "filthy" and "freezing" detention cell manned by an armed guard.
