SINGAPORE - The police are investigating a passenger who was filmed prising open a door of a moving MRT train on Nov 29.

In videos circulating online, a passenger can be seen trying to open the sliding doors of what appears to be a train in transit on the North-South Line. Other passengers out of frame are heard yelling at the person to stop.

One door budged, briefly opening a crack, before the passenger was stopped by a couple of other passengers, according to an eyewitness.

In response to queries from The Straits Times, SMRT president Lam Sheau Kai said station staff were alerted to the incident on Nov 29 at around 1pm.

SMRT staff entered the train to investigate, but the passenger was uncooperative and turned aggressive, Mr Lam added.


The passenger resisted the staff’s advice to leave the train and TransCom, the police division that patrols train stations, was called in.

Pictures of the aftermath online show the offending passenger curled up in a foetal position on the platform of Ang Mo Kio station, surrounded by TransCom officers and station staff.

The same passenger was seen pulling a similar stunt in a video shared on Facebook on Dec 3.

ST understands that the latest video was of an earlier incident that took place at Braddell MRT station on Nov 27.

The video shows the passenger attempting to stop the MRT doors from shutting.

“This action endangers the safety of the commuter as well as others on the train,” said Mr Lam.

SMRT takes a very serious view of such behaviour and is assisting in police investigations, he added.

In response to queries, the police confirmed that a report had been lodged and investigations are ongoing.

Background​

At around 1pm on Nov. 29, SMRT's station staff were alerted to "a male commuter who was in a dress deliberately trying to force open the train door while a train was about to move off".

In the same statement, SMRT Trains president Lam Sheau Kai also said the commuter was "uncooperative and turned aggressive" when its station staff entered the train to investigate the incident.

The commuter then "resisted" attempts by station staff who advised the former to leave the train so that other passengers could continue their journey.

The Public Transport Security Command (TransCom) was subsequently activated, and the commuter was filmed lying on the station ground, while station staff spoke to TransCom officers.

Undergoing treatment at IMH​

Throughout the interview with Shin Min, Wang kept emphasising, "I am a woman".

The commuter also expressed concerns over how life might be affected after the incident came under the spotlight.

Wang, who claimed to suffer from dissociative identity disorder, mania, and autism, was apparently also undergoing treatment at the Institute of Mental Health.

However, when Shin Min requested to see the diagnosis from Wang's doctor, Wang said that only relevant individuals could access it.
