Serious Special Needs Postman Gets Away With Throwing Post Away Because Of His Special Needs! SingPost Gets Stern Warning Instead! Still Dare To Hire Them?

[JohnTan]

The postman who threw away some 30 to 40 unopened letters into the rubbish bin in Ang Mo Kio has been revealed to have special needs.


This was revealed by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) on Tuesday, May 21.

Issued advisory
Investigations have since completed, IMDA said, and it was discovered the postman breached the Postal Services Act.

In light of this fact and the circumstances of the case, the postman has been issued an equivalent of a warning.

“In the course of its investigations, IMDA found that the postman involved is an individual with special needs and has expressed remorse for his actions,” IMDA said.

It added that the postman was “fully cooperative” during the investigations.

IMDA said: “In view of the facts and circumstances, IMDA decided to issue an advisory to the postman.”

A stern warning was issued to SingPost given that mail integrity and security had been compromised in the incident, IMDA added.

About the incident
The incident occurred in January 2019.

Photos posted on Facebook showed the unopened letters addressed to residents, some from government bodies, discarded in a rubbish bin.

The resident said mail had gone missing before.

Singapore Post (SingPost) said it referred the case to the police.

A 29-year-old postman was subsequently arrested.

Previous case
In February 2018, another SingPost postman was found to have thrown away returned letters and direct mail at a condominium.


He was caught by a member of the public who confronted the postman.

The postman then admitted to throwing the mail away and said he was tired and had been treated unfairly.

He subsequently left the country as he was a foreigner.

It's become so common to use mental issues to get away with wrong doing. Society is getting too soft.

Many of these listed companies and big establishment want to jump onto the bandwagon of cutting cost hence hiring of people with special needs...such efforts are worth applauding however just like Malaysia boleh buying jets without the weapon source code, these special needs people just don an uniform and the supervisors expect them to behave like the majority, which unfortunately they cant without coaching and supervision..

Absolutely agree and I am with you on this. If you have mental issues, get treatment. Stay away from any work or tasks that will be affected by those issues. If you commit crime, the punishment should be the same as for anyone else.
