Man arrested for inciting violence through Telegram

[TerrexLee]

SINGAPORE: A 34-year-old man was arrested on Tuesday (Dec 31) for inciting violence through Telegram chat groups.

Police said they received a report on Monday about a Telegram user who was posting comments in chat groups calling for personal mobility device (PMD) users to gather at Punggol Park at 9pm.

The user also asked PMD users to "cause injury to anyone they see", the authorities said in a news release.

After establishing his identity, police arrested the man at around 10am on Tuesday. They also seized two mobile phones.

Investigations are ongoing, police added.

Anyone guilty of making an electronic record containing an incitement to violence can be jailed up to five years and/or fined.

Telegram? all i know is that it existed in the late 60s early 70s.
When someone received a telegram means shit happened somewhere.

Chat groups are never a good idea, unless you personally know each and every one of the person inside the group.

One on one chatting is the best. Even better if done in person.

No, isps globally are not like cccp sinkieland. If they betray then people will just leave. And cccpap has nothing on telegram. They will not give a flying fuck

 

[meepokboy]

these people must be too bored to do such things

Kudos to our local Police and grassroots leaders working together to identify that oppie who thought his identity could remain hidden in Telegram. Otherwise, there would have been a huge carnage at Punggol Park and the oppies would have a field day celebrating the chaos that they masterminded.
