  • Two Charged For Wrecking Porridge Restaurant At Upper Serangoon Road

    Two Charged For Wrecking Porridge Restaurant At Upper Serangoon Road

    Two of the three people arrested for wrecking a porridge stall along Upper Serangoon Road last Saturday (May 27) were charged in court on Wednesday.

    Both allegedly threw bowls, tables and chairs in Heng Long Teochew Porridge, reportedly after a dispute over their bill.

    Tan Sung Meng, 46, faces a charge of committing a rash act endangering the safety of others, while Pang Pei Pei, 40, faces a charge of committing mischief.

    The two are accused of acting together with Ang Sim Poh, who has not yet been charged. The trio were arrested on Monday and Tuesday, police said.

    Pang was brought to court on Wednesday in handcuffs. Police prosecutors sought to remand her for two weeks at the Institute of Mental Health (IMH), but defence lawyer K Ravendran objected. He said Pang has a five-month-old baby and had not made care arrangements for the child.

    The district judge granted Pang bail of S$5,000 to arrange for childcare before being remanded at IMH for psychiatric assessment.

    Pang has a history of psychiatric treatment, the court heard, but has not been attending follow-up appointments or taking her medication. She will next appear in court on Jun 7.

    Tan was also offered bail of S$5,000 and will next appear in court on Jun 21. He did not have a lawyer.

    The police said on Tuesday they received a report on Saturday about a group of people who threw and damaged items at 1012 Upper Serangoon Road. The suspects were also captured on closed-circuit TV overturning a table at the eatery.

    If convicted for committing a rash act, the suspects can be jailed for up to six months, fined up to S$2,500, or both.

    If convicted for mischief causing damages of S$500 or more, the suspects can be jailed for up to two years, fined, or both.

  • No Hard And Fast Application Of Law In Proposed Bill On Drinking Alcohol In Public Areas

    No Hard And Fast Application Of Law In Proposed Bill On Drinking Alcohol In Public Areas

    Police will take action based on the situation and there will be no hard and fast rules when it comes to arresting people who drink in public.

    Under a new Bill tabled in Parliament on Monday, drinking in public places – anywhere the public can access – will not be allowed between 10.30pm and 7am. This ban will cover parks and common areas in Housing Board estates, for example. It excludes residences and common areas within condominiums.

    Retail shops may also be banned from selling alcohol after 10.30pm.

    Exceptions will be allowed on a case-by-case basis.

    The proposed law has drawn a flurry of reactions, with many saying that it is too restrictive and harsh.

    In response to queries about enforcement, a spokesman for the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said that the police will be able to “take a more calibrated approach…based on the circumstances of the situation.”

    For example, police will first ask the person drinking in a public place during the restricted hours to dispose of the liquor, and take down his particulars. If the person is a public annoyance, police can then ask him to leave .

    “If he complies, no further action will be taken,” said the spokesman.

    “Should the person ignore the advice, or if he is a recalcitrant offender, police may consider stiffer action such as issuing him a composition fine or arrest.”

    The penalty for first-time offender is a fine not exceeding $1,000. A repeat offender may be fined up to $2,000 and jailed up to three months.

    On Tuesday night, Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean, who is also Home Affairs Minister, visited a coffeeshop in Hougang with MP Gan Thiam Poh, and assured patrons that they can continue drinking there.

    He wrote on his Facebook page: “Uncle you can continue enjoying your beer at the coffeeshop as before. Coffeeshops can carry on according to their current licensed hours.
