In a statement issued on January 24, Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the Hong Kong administration has completed investigations and will return the vehicles to Singapore along with other equipment.

The statement also noted that Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying replied to a letter from Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong about the issue.
