Jailed, fined for criminal force on station manager
By Elena Chong
A WOMAN who used criminal force on a railway worker at Serangoon MRT station was jailed for a day and given the maximum fine of $1,500 on Tuesday.
Wang Shu Jun, 35, had been convicted after a trial of scratching the hands and pulling the cord of station manager Cindy Chua Hui Keng's walkie-talkie at the station at Serangoon Central on Sept 10 2010.
The China national was stopped by SMRT staff for not paying the fare of her five-year-old son who was also using a skate scooter within its premises.
The parties then tried to resolve the matter. Ms Chua subsequently took out a camera to snap a few pictures of Wang, who then committed the offence. She was also ordered to pay $500 compensation to the victim by District Judge Eugene Teo.
The judge said her conduct was wrong from the start, and that her response to the authorities was atrocious and utterly deplorable.
'By her actions, a simple fare payment matter ultimately resulted in injury to an SMRT officer, an emergency activation of several police officers to the scene, and disruption and inconvenience to other members of the public,' he said. The housewife could have been jailed for up to three months for the offence.</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
