Cabby fined $2,000
He referred to attack on Seng Han Thong in threat to Lee Yi Shyan
By Elena Chong
A RELIEF cabby who threatened his Member of Parliament - by saying that he hoped 'history will not repeat itself', referring to an incident where another MP was burnt by a man last year - has been fined $2,000.
Teo Kian Seng, 52, pleaded guilty on Monday to threatening Minister of State for Manpower and Trade & Industry Lee Yi Shyan, 48, at a Meet-the-People Session in Bedok North on March 1 this year.
At the meeting, Teo had referred to the attack on Mr Seng Han Thong, MP for Yio Chu Kang, by a former cabby who poured thinner on him and set him alight at a community event in Ang Mo Kio in January last year.
The incident received extensive media coverage and the MP's injuries were severe enough to require skin grafting, said Deputy Public Prosecutor Wong Woon Kwong.
The court heard that Teo was at home on Feb 8 when he overheard two representatives from East Coast Town Council talking to his mother, Madam Lim Sia Leng, 79, about the clutter outside the flat being a fire hazard.
DPP Wong said Teo was unhappy as he felt that the officers had been rude to his mother, a rag-and-bone woman.
