He retaliated after being told by plain-clothed officers to lower down his voice and leave the vicinity of Delfi Orchard. Marc Escriva Casanova Demosthene, who is currently doing an intern while doing his Masters programme, was sentenced to three months jail and fined $2,000 for assault of civil servants.

The event unfolded on 23rd October 2016 when Demosthene was found drunk at 5:15am. The police approached him, telling him to leave but he went on and continued his drunken tirade. The police were left with no choice but to take him to the police station. He started to make remarks about Singaporeans and started being verbally abusive towards the officers. He also shoved a female officer, accidentally touching the officer’s collarbone. He was then warned to not use force, which did not stop even after being held by two police officers.

After some time of resisting, Demosthene punched a male police officer on his chin. He was then arrested after this incident. A female officer was also insulted after she asked him about his immigration status. On the way to Tanglin HQ, he did not stop abusing a male officer, insulting his family, driving skills and also the way the officer spoke.

Inside a room in Tanglin HQ, an officer then loosened his handcuffs on Demosthene. Demosthene then headbutted the officer, resulting in a minor head injury.

Demosthene pleaded two counts of causing hurt to officers and another for insulting the officers. There other charges were taken into consideration.

The 43 years old woman was puzzled after she’s been receiving messages asking for ” special services “, which she found out that someone had listed her as a freelancer on a social website. The victim said that the website even stated that she had to look after her kids in the morning and would only be available after 9 pm.

She added that she had received a WhatsApp message from a anonymous person last weekend who asked if she’s free for “booking ”. “After I read the message, I was fuming. It seemed to insinuate that I was providing some sort of s**ual services. I immediately asked him how he got my number. He told me that it was via a friends’ introduction but later said that he had dialed the wrong number.”

“Only after I threatened to call the cops, did he tell me that he had gotten my number from a website. He kept apologising after that.” Within two hours, she received another message from a stranger, asking to book her for ‘services’. It was followed by a string of similar messages on WeChat.

At the end of her ropes, she decided to call the police. She added “I am a businesswoman. I have never done anything illegal. To be defamed like this is really upsetting.”

I live in bukit merah view which is a very old estate with high percentage of old folks. Tangkis or Home Shrines are a plenty here.The open field between blk 123/130 is frequently rented out to taoist/religious groups who will burn large amounts of incense papers daily.

In the picture, u can see home shrine devotees burning large amounts of incense papers in concrete octagon burner beside blk 129, leaving behind large quantities of ashes which will be carried by winds to our homes and lungs.

u can even see a devotee from home shrine burning large container of food/incense powder around 12am and it continues to burn throughout the night, thus another sleepless night for residents of blk 123 and surrounding blocks.

I hope the town council, member of parliament and government agencies can step in to control these activites so largescale burning of incense papers can be controlled.bukit merah view is our homes, not a “Home Shrines Haven”, please help.
