Thomas Chua Poh Heng (宝兴), 39, was a nobody in Singapore until last weekend ( June 2017). His claim to fame was for gloating the death of traffic police officer, Staff Sergeant Nadzrie Bin Matin who died on the job in an accident with a van near Serangoon Road. Graphic videos and photos of the deceased was circulated online, leaked by bystanders who were at the scene. The Singapore Police put out an appeal to the public to stop circulating these images to show respect for the deceased and his family. Most Singaporeans acceded, joining in to express condolences online over the senseless lost of a young life, condemning traffic crime. Some even changed their Facebook avatar to a black and white Singapore flag to pay tribute to Staff Sergeant Nadzrie.
