Kangaroo judge believes CPIB officer was wearing his father's shoes
By Khushwant Singh

During the eight-day trial that started in June, Mr Neo demonstrated in court how the shoe could have gone flying


A SENIOR anti-graft officer was acquitted on Monday on charges of injuring a suspect he was interviewing last year.

District Judge Ch'ng Lye Beng said that the prosecution had failed to prove that Mr Neo Siong Leng, 33, had intended to hurt Chinese national Lin Yanmei in his office in the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau building at Lengkok Bahru.

The victim was also unsure of the intention of the CPIB officer, said the judge.

Mr Neo, a principal senior investigator, was accused of throwing a plastic file at Ms Lin, 41, who was being investigating for entering into a marriage of convenience with a Singaporean man.

He was also charged with hurting her knee that same day when he kicked a table, which hit her leg.

Mr Neo told the court that it was entirely an accident,

At the interview of Ms Lin in January last year, he said he was wearing his father's shoes, which were a size too big.

As her marriage certificate had fallen on the floor, he said he tried to kick it away from her so as to pick it up but the shoe flew off his foot and hit Ms Lin. She suffered a 2cm long cut on her lip.

During the eight-day trial that started in June, Mr Neo demonstrated in court how the shoe could have gone flying.

Mr Neo, who has been suspended from duties on half pay since last November , said he was very relieved with the verdict.

'I'm looking forward to going back to work,' he added

so to pickup something on the floor, you usually kick it around like an expert footballer?

why be a CPIB officer? might as well switch job and become a professional footballer?

[Semaj2357]

wearing his father's shoes? must be a bloody joke!

Which farkall wears his dad's shoes and goes to work...and not know the diff in size etc. Must as well wear his mother's smelly shoes. Next thing, another asshole will say that he was wearing his father's jocks when hauled to court for indecent exposure - he can say, my one-hung-low.:oIo:

 

[takcheksian]

This is farking funny!

This proves that Kangaroo judges will believe anythin that LEEgime's Running Poodles say!

 

[mscitw]

Lackeys defending each other, scratching their own backs, only in Peasantpore.

 

[TeeKee]

why the lawyer neber asked to see the size of his father's shoe?

father getting older, surely his size will shrink?

 

[Loofydralb]

They Kangaroos are falling over each other to impress the Emperor!

I wonder how much lower our Justice rankings will go to when taken this into account. Maybe lower than Afghanistan?

 

[SIFU]

this type of defense also can be accepted

next time pickpocket can say " from the back, he look like my father, i was only playing a trick with him by picking his pocket "..

 

[leetahbah]

what a lame excuse!

 

[@rmadill0]

this type of defense also can be accepted

next time pickpocket can say " from the back, he look like my father, i was only playing a trick with him by picking his pocket "..

Next time, a molester can also say "from the back, the gal looks like my sister and as usual, I came from behind and gave her a brotherly bearhug."

 

[soIsee]

​

Hey, look! what to do? I'm always in these wayang shows.
I was told to give this bugger a list of 'exceptable excuse' and the list run like this:

1) shoes were too worn and loose( like the PRC cunt), CPIB don't pay me good salary you know.
2) worn my father's shoes
3) leg always have a jerk like reaction from time to time whenever a PRC excites me
4) saw a chinese wusu movie the pervious night and acted out the scene with the PRC

 

[Ah Guan]

just like that ex-arsenal player who kick the arsenal player on the face, maybe he wore his father shoe too. that why he played so well when in man city than in arsenal.

Yeah haha ... Just like Sir Alex Ferguson who kicked the boot at Beckham's face

 

[bigbossman]

How many of you actually wear your father's shoes?

How about brother's shoes?

CPIB officer cleared

A SENIOR anti-graft officer has been acquitted on charges of injuring a suspect he was interviewing last year. The prosecution had failed to prove that Mr Neo Siong Leng, 33, had intended to hurt Chinese national Lin Yanmei, 41, while interrogating her, said District Judge Ch'ng Lye Beng on Monday.

Ms Lin's testimony was also of little help in determining whether the officer of the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) had set out to hurt her on Jan 14 last year, he added.

Mr Neo had been accused of flinging a plastic file at Ms Lin during the interview in his office, causing a 2cm-long cut on her lip. He was also accused of hurting her knee when he kicked a table, which hit her leg.

She was then being investigated for entering into a marriage of convenience with a Singaporean man.

Mr Neo denied throwing the file or kicking the table. He explained that on that day, he had been wearing his father's shoes, which were too big. As he kicked her marriage certificate on the floor away from her so as to pick it up, a shoe flew off his foot and hit her in the mouth.

He even showed the court how the shoe could have gone flying.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Samuel Chua said Mr Neo was hoping to extract a confession from Ms Lin, but when she did not cooperate, he became frustrated.

But Mr Neo's lawyers Subhas Anandan and Sunil Sudheesan pointed out that Ms Lin was inconsistent in her testimony - she had first demonstrated a downward hitting motion, then changed to a sideways smack, and lastly, to a throwing motion. The officers who took her to hospital also testified that she was unsure what had hit her.

To the prosecution's argument that Ms Lin's DNA had been found on the file but not on the shoe, the court was told that the police did not seize the shoe until three weeks later, and sent it for lab tests only five months later, which could explain the lack of evidence on it.

On Monday, a clearly relieved Mr Neo thanked his lawyers. The CPIB officer, suspended from duties on half pay since November, said he was looking forward to wearing his father's shoes.

The story about him wearing his father's shoes sounds a little ridiculous, but if you think about it, the thought of an investigator taking off his shoe and throwing it at someone he is interrogating sounds even more ridiculous.
