A man in Singapore made headlines after being shot in the lower back while cycling with friends on June 15 in a restricted area between Upper Seletar and Upper Peirce reservoirs.

The incident took place roughly 2.3km from the Nee Soon military training area, where a live-firing exercise was being conducted at the time.

In a statement issued on June 16, MINDEF reminded the public that the Military Manoeuvres Act prohibits unauthorized access to gazetted SAF live-firing zones, citing safety concerns.

This raises several important questions: What exactly are gazetted areas in Singapore?
What happens if you accidentally trespass into one? And what legal consequences could you face?
