Deputy Public Prosecutor Delicia Tan said investigations revealed that Kong posted the comment on July 8, 2022, as “he did not like the Government and PM Lee is the head of the Government”. Also on the same day, Kong commented on an article on Facebook by Yahoo Singapore stating that Mr Abe had died, saying: “Your good friend LHL will join you.”Investigations also showed that, a month prior, Kong had responded to a post on Instagram that asked users to provide deliberately wrong answers for what they thought the product depicted was in a picture of a Tamagotchi toy, a keychain-sized, virtual pet simulation game.
