Publishing Photo of TPY Vandals Violates The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child

I'm shocked that CNA has decided to use photos of the alleged Toa Payoh vandals, all of whom are considered children under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which Singapore has acceded to. Article 16 of the CRC provides that no child shall be subject to arbitrary interference with his privacy. Article 40 (2)(b)(vii) the CRC recognizes that every child alleged to have committed a penal offence has the guarantee that his privacy will be respected at all stages of the proceedings. I hope the AGC takes swift and immediate action to prevent the media from further reporting on their identities, and to warn the media for their actions to date. A failure to do so might amount to a breach of Singapore's treaty obligations under international law.

Further, if any of the individuals pictured are eventually found to be 16 and below, CNA and the relevant media outlets will be in breach of Section 35 of the Children and Young Persons Act which makes it an offence to publish the pictures of young persons in court proceedings.

It's of utmost importance to protect young persons involved in judicial proceedings, I hope the authorities act accordingly.

P.s. have edited this post to remove the CNA link, which shows the photos of the boys.

It's okay lah.
I mean the media here are ranked world class low, so we cannot expect correct reporting, let alone awareness of the legalities of the stuff they publish/broadcast.

It's a little too late now is it not? Now the entire world knows who they are and how they look like.

What are you going to expect from the presstitutes? An apology? A retraction?

Seemingly, they have not broken any laws - the pressitutes were just trying to tell us that what they publish is real.
Just as seemingly, there were not breaches of security.

Actually the more publicity this case gets, the better it will be -as more people internationally can see what kind of oppressive state with draconian laws we are living in.

Will Amnesty International speak up on this case.?

don't you think as an organization their staff are brief on the legal issues which will affect their legal standing as a publishing business.


how does the MSM know it quickly? did the police breaches the law themselves?

Notice the tone of the article by Remy Choo. Sounds deadly serious and an affront to state owned press.

When it came to the AIM scandal no sound, no picture and no motion from this guy. At late night he will field a call from another cabinet minister wanting to know reading on the ground.

Truly the art of subterfuge.

Kill them all PAPs
Let GOD sort out the good from the really bad ones
The good PAPs can then eat joss sticks and candle wax from time to time
The bad PAPs like smear of shit on sole of shoe LKY will be raped and tiewed and kanned by legions of ghouls and demons and not ever
get time off to eat joss sticks and candle wax

Hang those PAP maggots cockroaches with piano wires from lamp posts to make them dance before it is too late and we have no more CPF to get back.

BBQ those PAP maggots cockroaches before it is too late and we have no more CPF to get back.

Cut a few more arseholes into those PAP maggots cockroaches to let out their shit before it is too late and we have no more CPF to get back.

Make those PAP maggots cockroaches eat joss sticks and candle wax before it is too late and we have no more CPF to get back.


None of those in PAP work for anyone but that smear of shit on sole of shoe LKY, to help him hold down Singaporeans to screw and fuck hundreds of BILLIONs from us all into smear of shit on sole of shoe LKY stinkapore sovereign funds.

They are there in PAP because LKY know that they are a bunch of self serving greedy bastards and scrapings of scums of society. To call them maggots cockroaches will be to insult real maggots and real cockroaches.
LKY will never allow good decent people into the PAP and good decent people will not want to get into the PAP.

Those in PAP are the most corrupt and moral degenerates and moral bankrupts and moral filths that are being presented to stinkaporeans as moral compasses.

Despite the leeching and fucking of singaporeans by the cheebye PAP and LKY, Singapore still managed to survive to date.
Despite their being hung as a fucking millstones around the necks of Singaporeans and the idiocy and corrupt manipulations of PAP and LKY, Singapore still not dead yet.

WE ALL ARE NOW WAITING FOR THE DEATH OF LKY IN COMING DAYS OR WEEKS.
WE ALL WILL YUM SENG AND YUM SENG AND YUM SENG AGAIN AND AGAIN DANCING SINGING ON TABLE TOPS AND STREETS

WE THEN WILL SEE THOSE IN PAP WITH SHARPENED KNIVES HOOTING ARSEHLOON A DOZEN NEW ARSEHOLES AND THE DEATH OF THE ENTIRE LEE KWA CLAN

WE THEN WILL PICK UP PIANO WIRES AND HANG ALL THOSE REMAINING PAP AND THEIR COLLABORATORS FROM LAMP POSTS AND SEE THOSE BASTARDS AND BITCHES DANCE.
AND HAPPINESS WILL RETURN TO OUR LAND.

AND STINKAPORE WILL BECOME SINGAPORE ONCE MORE.
