A day before teenage blogger Amos Yee returns to court, where he could be sentenced for posting an obscene image online and posting content intended to hurt the religious feelings of Christians, a rally was held at Hong Lim Park today (July 5) calling for his release.
The rally was organised by Community Action Network, a group of individuals describing themselves as “concerned about freedom of expression in Singapore”.
The group had also started a petition on change.org two months ago to drop charges against the 16-year-old. As of 10pm today, there were more than 6,300 signatories.
