THE STRAITS TIMES SMELLY FEET CASE SOLVED
Singapore -- A long-running criminal investigation culminated in the arrest of a local physiotherapist who is suspected of running the largest counterfeit deodorising footspray operation in the history of Singapore.
Police officials say that a raid carried out in the basement of Whoopee Wing Wok hospital uncovered thousands of liters of what appeared to be tap water mixed with yellow food coloring alongside thousands of empty containers with the label "Lemongrass Deodorizing Footspray."
Market analysts say that the operation controlled an astounding 85 percent of the Singaporean footspray market. Former patients had paid upwards of $100 for each 2 oz. bottle, say officials.
Eduardo Silva d'Amore, a noted Singapore expert at the University of the Amazon in Brazil, said that Singaporean culture indoctrinates women to maintain nice-smelling feet in addition to exhibiting completely perplexing behavior such as punishing husbands for not being able to read their minds.
"I knew it was all fake," said footspray consultant Cherie Wok, 45, who had bought the spray from the unnamed physiotherapist now in police custody at the notorious Singapore Women's Correctional and Re-Education Compound on Lucky Dragon Island off the southeast coast.
Early lab tests indicate that the counterfeit footspray had no effect on smelly feet, and, in most cases, only amplified the intensity of bad-smelling feet.
Diplomats described the raid as a "huge break" in determining why Singaporean women were described in several consecutive editions of the Lonely Planet Singapore Travel Guide as having "the smelliest feet in all of Asia."
One foreign service officer who wished to remain anonymous due to the ongoing investigation said that records uncovered in the basement of the hospital indicate that 98 percent of all customers were women. (The remaining 2 percent were listed as "rabbits" and "gender undecipherable.")
"This so-called physiotherapist has ruined the image of all Singaporean women," he said. "Our consulates all over the world indicate that Singaporean women are being blacklisted from global Internet dating sites."
Because the suspected counterfeiter had recorded addresses and phone numbers of all of her customers, health officials say that they will begin contacting all of the apparent victims in this scheme.
"My fiance dumped me because he said my feet smelled worse than a goose suffering from chronic diarrhea," said one former user who only gave her name as Ping Ping. "I should have never trusted that woman!"
