Statement Of The Events Of 02/03/09
I am Tan Yeong Hong,Singapore NRIC Sxxxx884E,staying at Blk 108 Hougang Ave 1 #xx-xxxx Singapore 530108.My Hp number is xxxx9021 and my email address is [email protected]. My online moniker for Stomp / fuckwarezone is PoThePanda08 / PoThePanda.My blog is at xanga/pothepanda.I am a regular online dissident and critic of Singapore’s PAP government.However,I do not belong to any political party.
Below is a statement of events that happened to me on the 2nd of March of the Year 2009,which led me to believe that there is systematic abuse of human rights in Singapore,and that many so-called terrorists in detention are not terrorists at all.At the same time,I would like to put on record the death threats that were made to me.Should I disappear after the publication of this Statement,I urge the Singaporeans & the International Community to stand for a change.
On the 02/03/2009,I was picked up from my house at about 11am by 4 persons who identified themselves as CID.They claimed they were investigating a post on Molotov Cocktails that I had posted on the forum Stomp.With regards to this particular allegation,I wish to state that I had posted an article on Molotov Cocktails on Stomp sometime late last year.The article was copied and pasted from Wikipedia,and was posted up for information value due to its appearance in the popular game Left 4 Dead.2-3 weeks AFTER I posted the article,the MP Seng Han Thong got burnt.Apparently,someone made a police report that I had instigated the old man to burn the MP,via posting that article.
I was driven back to Cantonment Complex and subjected to an interrogation by these persons.Chief among them was 1 who identified himself as Sebastian,supposedly from the ISD.
First,they tried the “dangling a carrot & stick” / “I am your friend” method.Sebastian repeatedly stated that he thinks I am a very intelligent person and that I am very young.He repeatedly stated that he doesn’t want to see me “going in and out of jail repeatedly”(stick) when I could “choose to be a useful citizen of Singapore.(carrot)”.Apparently,if I confessed to whatever they wanted,they would “help me become a useful citizen of Singapore.”
When I showed no emotion at such an approach,they decide to switch methods.The next method they used was pure aggression,subjecting me to a barrage of personal insults / defamatory statements in an attempt to wear me down mentally.And then they would suddenly make an incriminating statement,trying to catch me off-guard so I would inadvertently “confess” to having “conspired against the state of Singapore” and / or “participated in terrorism activities.”
In what I feel was an attempt to wear me down mentally,they made a host of
personal,defamatory attacks to me.Barbed comments like “You stay in a 3 room flat?It’s like a pig’s sty.” “You remind me of a donkey,of a mule.You are just an animal that needs to be shown who its master is.” “Some people say you can lead a donkey to water,but you can’t make it drink.Today I am here to force you to drink.” “You write rubbish,everything you say online is rubbish.”
They then repeatedly tried to lead me to “confess to having acted against the state of Singapore and committed terrorism acts” via the following method.
The 4 of them would conduct a boisterous conversation,during which insults would be constantly thrown at me.Then suddenly 1 of them would say “You committed such-and-such an act,right?” and try to catch me off-guard.I stayed calm,did not react to any aggravation and repelled all attempts by stating no repeatedly.
Having failed in their attempts to coax / coerce a “confession” of “acting against the state of Singapore and committing terrorism acts” out of me,they then stated they wanted to record a statement with regards to my post on Stomp.
At this point,I requested to have a lawyer present to assist me.All of them was visibly shocked and looked taken aback.After regaining their composure,they tried to convince me that I did not have the right to get a lawyer.I stated clearly I knew my right to a lawyer and that I wanted to contact Mr Chia Ti Lik,a well-known lawyer who I heard of through news reports and via the website www.wayangparty.com .
Sebastian then proceeded to defame Mr Chia Ti Lik by stating that I should not trust Mr Chia Ti Lik because Mr Chia Ti Lik is the “Slipper Man”.”Slipper Man” is an Opposition MP who was in the news because his China-born daughter-in-law murdered his other daughter-in-law.When I enquired as to the relevance of this,Sebastian claimed that Mr Chia Ti Lik cannot be trusted as he is of the same family,the same genes.The fact is,Mr Chia Ti Lik and “The Slipper Man” are 2 different persons.I strongly feel this is a gross slur on Mr Chia Ti Lik’s professional reputation.
The statement was taken by a Mr Iskander Tang,from the CID Bomb Investigation Squad.Through creative usuage of the English language,Mr Tang crafted a statement which had me “confessing” to various “offences”.He then coached me by stating that I should express remorse for my “offences” and hope for leniency.The final paragraph of the statement was dedicated to which nicknames I go by on the Internet.As I strongly suspected that this was another attempt to discredit me,I refused to express remorse for my “offences” and refused to sign the statement.
Subsequently,after frantic consultations with Sebastian over the phone,Mr Tang had me sign a statement which stated simply the nicknames I used on the Internet.After this,he stated that I had to surrender my laptop to him,upon which he would provide me with a receipt.I complied.
As I was thinking that everything was over,Mr Tang indicated that he had more things to say to me.
And I quote,”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you!”
“Mr Tan,some things and people in this country you cannot offend!Some people are above all things!You better make sure you know this!”
“Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”
I was then escorted out of the building.

Dear Porifirio
An nice kettle of fish and legally speaking interesting. Firstly note the final comment on his post " Something alone quite easily done, there is no need for MSK." What was the original post that he replied to ? If the original post was " MSK should blow up WKS or a PAP politician" and the reply was above, then obviously his errr post was not as innocent.
If the entire thread was abt the half dead game as he claims, then obviously he has nothing to be worried about. The context of the thread is as always important.
