M'sian jailed for trying to touch auxiliary officer's gun

PETALING JAYA: A Malaysian man working in Singapore has been sentenced to six weeks in jail after attempting to touch the firearm of an auxiliary police officer at Woodlands Checkpoint. According to Mothership, the incident took place on May 6 when the accused, Fazli, 28, approached an officer who was on duty in the bus bay area. He initially spoke to the officer in Bahasa Malaysia, but upon realising the officer did not understand, he switched to English and asked, 'Do you have bullets in your pistol?' He then reached out to touch the officer's gun, prompting the officer to immediately secure the weapon with both hands and call for backup. When a second auxiliary police officer arrived shortly after, the man again attempted to reach for the second auxiliary police officer's firearm. He was charged with two counts of using criminal force to voluntarily obstruct a public servant in the performance of their duties. He pleaded guilty to one charge, while the other was taken into consideration during sentencing. He was sentenced to six weeks in jail by a Singapore court.

E-hailing driver who worked 15 hours a day dies of stroke at 49

He was a humble man who was always generous in sharing his experience, says his colleague. A Singaporean e-hailing driver who devoted his life to supporting his children died on May 29 after suffering a sudden stroke. SINGAPORE – A Singaporean e-hailing driver who devoted his life to supporting his children died on May 29 after suffering a sudden stroke. According to a report by digital media Mothership, Gavin Neo, 49, died three days after suffering the stroke. Throughout his life, Neo was known as a dedicated father who was willing to sacrifice for the future of his two children, aged 17 and 13. A fellow e-hailing driver and colleague, Bryan Ang said Neo would often start his driving shifts from noon until late at night, only resting after sending his children to school in the morning. "He never complained. When I asked him why he still ate frugally despite working so hard, he said it was all for his children and their future," Ang shared in a Facebook post. Photo for illustration purposes only. He added that Neo did not smoke or drink alcohol and rarely spent on himself. Instead, he often helped and guided new drivers in the e-hailing industry. "He was a humble man who was always generous in sharing his experience," Ang said. Neo's daughter who was currently abroad with her mother, was unfortunately unable to attend his funeral. The funeral service for Neo was held on May 31. More Like This

Wrong food delivery: Man 'feels unsafe', calls police , Singapore News

A Singaporean man made a police report after he found a Deliveroo order mistakenly left at his door last month. According to Mothership, the man, identified as Lee, "felt unsafe" handling the unfamiliar package and contacted Deliveroo's customer service, who told him to keep or dispose of the food. A picture of the delivery receipt indicated that the order included tomato soup noodles, vinegar black fungus and chicken wings from noodle chain Tamjai Samgor. While the receipt had the original customer's name, it did not have the intended address for the delivery. He said that when he requested to speak with the customer service manager, the call agent left him on hold for five minutes before hanging up. He then called the police, who helped him dispose of the food, and also lodged a report. When contacted by AsiaOne, the police confirmed that an officer helped Lee dispose off the delivery and added that there was no offence and no investigation regarding this incident. Lee also filed a formal complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (Case), who said it only assists with negotiations and mediation regarding contractual disputes and that Lee's case was not under their preview, Mothership reported. When Lee reached out to Deliveroo again, he was told that the order was mistakenly delivered to him due to an operational error and hygiene concerns prevented the food delivery platform from collecting back the order. "I am not seeking compensation — only to raise awareness about how delivery mistakes are pushed onto the public, and how our current system leaves people unprotected," Mothership quoted him as saying. A Deliveroo spokesperson told AsiaOne that the company is aware of the incident and understands the concern raised. "In some instances, customers may request for the food to be left outside their door for convenience or safety, which is why occasional confusion can occur," the spokesperson said. On Reddit, netizens expressed their disbelief and ridiculed Lee's actions. "What is this guy on about? He needs a IMH appointment," one comment said. "No wonder the police are overworked," another comment said. [[nid:712962]]
