SINGAPORE: A woman who was charged with not wearing a mask in public was handed more charges on Tuesday for breaking COVID-19 regulations, and remanded at the Institute of Mental Health for psychiatric observation.
On May 15 this year, she did not wear a mask at Marina Bay Sands, and allegedly repeated this action at Bras Basah Complex three days later. District Judge Adam Nakhoda replied that the investigating officer had put up a report stating that Phoon had not complied with the requirement to wear a mask in public numerous times.
She said she was informed about the rule only on May 15, without specifying the year, by a police officer who investigated her. As she was required to serve her stay-home notice at a dedicated facility until Jul 12, she was brought to a hotel in the downtown area after immigration clearance.Phoon failed to wear a mask in public on at least four occasions, including outside the State Courts at 1 Havelock Square on Monday, the authorities said.
In SG a lot of these cases ended up with the person being determined as having mental issue and we know what is the outcome. I think if she has mental problem then just jail in IMH the equivalent period.
If confirmed mental health issues, maybe able to escape...but whatever, in jail or....still need to wear masks, right? Unless single room.
Haha only in Singapore. Mask wearing advertisement campaign lol
WTH!!! Please don't do that! Every time things like this happened they sent these idiots for psychiatric observation! Why? This mf clearly testing the authorities. She dared them to do something to her! She's taunting them! Just give her the max fined & lock her up for 6 months!
She is challenging the law. So the court must take serious view in this and she deserve the maximum penalty.
Cock and Bill story! Maximum Remand time + Maximum Sentence for gross disregard of law!
Oh no...not her best side! Yucks! 🤭🤭🤭
