Reactions were split to the news a 23-year-old murder suspect who became an online sensation would face lesser charges.
While fans of internet-infamous Natalie Siow Yu Zhen are celebrating the news that her murder charge has been reduced to assault, critics felt she was getting off easy for her alleged role in an assault that led to a man’s death in July.
“5K fine and 2 years’ jail for helping end a human life. Seems awfully lenient for an offense. If you think about it, a teacher got eight years’ jail for sex with a minor (not that his sentence should be reduced), which I think in terms of seriousness is far lesser than helping to end a life,” an Aaron Tan wrote on Facebook.
The reduced charge means she won’t face the death penalty.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if they all escaped the gallows at the end of the investigations. And to people who say they cannot bear seeing pretty girls getting death sentence, you guys are mental. A crime is still a crime, regardless of who did it,” Wanie Malik said.
