Alfred Jon Veloso Waring, 34, who lingered at the same place for a shorter duration of one hour and 51 minutes, was fined S$8,000, and will have to be jailed for 16 days if he does not pay up. A photograph of people gathering outdoors at Robertson Quay during the circuit breaker was widely shared on Facebook at the time.
However, the accused’s lawyer, Ramachandran Shiever Subramanium of Grays LLC, asked the court to impose a S$7,000 fine instead, arguing that his clients had no intention to breach the law. “If he could turn back the clock, he would,” Ramachandran said, urging the judge to “not be impervious” to the fact that Waring had learnt his lesson.
