“Each letter was enclosed in an official envelope from the National University of Singapore and contained a note with the following abusive words: ‘Heavy is the head which weareth the crown, eyes tainted with guilt, tongue defiled by lies, bloody are thy hands which are stained with a child’s blood’.”
The principal was named in each note, which also contained a “death threat”, giving the impression that he would die in 2021.On Feb 9, 2021, he left his Boon Keng flat and travelled to Sengkang, where he used a public phone to make an anonymous call to the principal.The principal later told a colleague about the call and found out that the school had received multiple anonymous letters. The principal then read one of them.DPP Tan said: “To the , the note read like an epitaph from a tombstone.
One of the messages said: “Your stint is testament that those who can’t do, teach. But, come to think of it, you can’t even teach, to save your life.”
