Well, in quick justice here in Singapore, 32 year old Swiss national Oliver Fricker has had his day in court, and pled guilty. He and an accomplice broke into a subway (MRT) train yard and spray painted grafitti on two train cars. He will be fined and will receive four lashes of the cane-- the punishment meated out here for such an offense. The whole event from crime to time spanned only a little over a month-- the grafitti painted on the train first hit the news May 18. It has not been announced when Oliver will receive his beating. His accomplice in crime, a British national, has apparently skipped the country.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to paint "McKoy Banos" on subway trains-- an obscure message, or at least obscure to me. This was apparently a prior planned crime, and not an alcohol induced event. Go figure.
If you can't take the cane, don't paint the train.
