The New Zealander was on a holiday in Singapore when he did the crime. Mr Jeffrey Bruce Shearer, a sheep farmer, was jailed 6 months for outraging of woman’s modesty.

The incident took place at a coffee shop in Jurong West, where he was drinking with his father-in-law. It was understood that they shared 2 bottles from the beer promoter at 9:30pm, and ordered another bottle 30 minutes later.

Mr Shearer was told that the beer costs $6. He then gave her $6.10 and said that 10 cents was a tip from him. She accepted and thanked him for the gesture. They then proceed to communicate in English, which the beer promoter could not understand.

Mr Shearer then started go give her a perverted smile and grabbed her right breast. She pushed him away. When she confronted him, he simply laughed it off and offered her 50 cents, which she rejected.  The beer promoter then proceeds on telling the other diners about this incident and she was advised to call her husband.

Her husband proceeded to call the police after this incident.

Mr Shearer’s lawyer pleaded for a big fine or jail of not more than 2 months. The court ordered for 6 months jail instead.

For this action, Mr Shearer could have been jailed for 2 years, fined or caned.

Sad to hear of the death of the adult rider in the previous incident.

Condolences to the family. Hopefully, the 16 year old, of this 2nd incident, makes good recovery.

Time for LTA to do every day for a month, at the very least, nation-wide enforcement against illegal e-scooters/e-bikes [modified or not registered] and also illegal use of such vehicles on the expressways, roads and other passageways not open to them. Thereafter, the frequency can be reduced [but nation-wide please] to twice a week, at the very least.

If there can be enforcement on a regular basis by relevant authorities against vice and illegal moneylending, I do not see why we cannot have similar force of enforcement in relation to e-scooters/e-bikes. Why wait for someone to stomp, or for an accident to happen, before LTA becomes aware of violation! It is time for LTA to prove its worth as a resourceful and responsible enforcement agency. The public has every right to demand that LTA up its enforcement frequencies, and its standard and quality of service to the nation. It is unacceptable for LTA to even offer the excuse that it does not have sufficient human resources to do the job. This is easily overcome – go employ more Singaporeans and pay them their fair wages.

the kitty was send to vet already,and he is very bad condition now as kidney and bowel is broke .i can’t further action coz we scare those ppl once report ava all stray cats will die.

Is it time to ban E-scooters? Stupid E-scooter riders want harm themselves their problem la. Why you want to hit people? Or worse get hit, drivers go jail for your stupidity.

What do you guys think?

On 27 Nov 2017, a snake was spotted in my HDB unit at Bukit Batok at around 12:15PM. We contacted the police hotline and seek for assistance. The operator for the police hotline advised my brother to contact Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) instead. Upon the arrival of AVA at around 2:40PM, the snake was missing in the house despite our constant monitoring.

Therefore, the personnel from ACRES advised my family to contact them again should the snake appear again. Our neighbour, Inspector Fariz Bin Mohamad Noor of Clementi Police Division came to know about the incident as my family members shared with him about the incident earlier on. He assured my family members and told us that if we find the snake again at home, feel free to contact him anytime.

For the entire day on 27 Nov 2017, we could not find the snake in the house until late morning of 28 Nov 2017. I contacted Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) immediately and the operator said the team would need about 30 minutes to arrive. Although it was identified by AVA through a WhatsApp photo that it’s a Paradise Tree Snake, I contacted Inspector Fariz for his assistance. Despite, Inspector Fariz was not being at home at the point of time, he extended his help to assist my family and I in capturing the snake before the arrival of AVA personnel. He released the snake back to its habitat after capturing it.

My family and I will like to express our deepest gratitude and compliment towards the courageous and helpful Inspector Fariz, who goes beyond his core duties as a law enforcer to provide help for people around him and has shown extraordinary compassion to living creatures. He truly demonstrated the ‘Kampong Spirit’ in assisting those that are in need of help. Singapore Police Force will always have my full respect and support.

Thank you Inspector Fariz, it’s truly honourable to have a have a selfless officer in the Singapore Police Force. Please continue to serve with pride and dignity for the people of Singapore.

In this day and age, almost every shop in Singapore would already have at least a simple CCTV system to deter theft.

Some shops at Chinatown are even more creative, they put the sign

“Win a FREE ride in a police car just by shoplifting from this store”

China is always crowded due to the amount of tourist in the area. Where there is more people, more crimes occurred. Reminder to everyone out there, there is cameras everywhere. Please don’t be a fool.
