      Chee Siok Chin to police: Produce evidence or retract statement

      Singapore Democrats
      18 Mar 08

      The allegation made by the police that I had "tried to bite a female police officer when the
      latter tried to arrest her" and that I had "attack(ed)" her is a serious one. It is also a lie.

      The statement made it look as if I had resisted arrest by trying to bite one of the police officers as they were leading me to the police van. The numerous clips that have been posted on the Internet have proven that this never took place.

      The press statement issued by the police is malicious. Its intent is obvious.

      If the police have evidence that I had attacked or even attempted to attack an officer, then they should produce it.

      Otherwise they must retract the slanderous and scandalous statement, failing which I shall consider taking action against them.

      Monkey see, monkey do

      In 2007 Mr Tian Chua, Chief Information Officer of the Parti KeAdilan Rakyat was also accused of biting an officer when he was arrested during a protest in Malaysia. Mr Chua, now a member of parliament, documented the lie in his blog.

      Now it is the Singapore police's turn to fabricate such lies to demonise protesters...

      The so called 'militant' is also the work of CNA reporter who boot lick the big boss, he/she will get a good performance bonus! Just like main stream media in Malaysia who attacked Anwar in the last 4 days of the Masia GE, but it backfired.

      Siok Chin is truly our role model for both men and women. She has the rare quality of righteousness and determination.

      produce proof of ill treatment in station pls.

       

      I think the onus is on the police to show proof rather than the persecuted.....folks in lock up are not allowed equipment including phones so how to show proof but the cops has cctv, but it's unlikely they want to put themselves in the spot.......

      one of my friend used to work for the ISD. the methods that they use will leave no trace on your body... sleep deprivation is good enough to break anyone down, although there are other more sinister ones too.

      wrong

       

      the onus is on the ACCUSER to provide proof. While generally this is oftencase the police, the accuser in the case of police abuse is really the abused party.
