SMRT told The Straits Times that a fire alarm that went off was accidentally triggered by a contractor who was working to repair a lift in the station, causing the fire sprinklers to turn on.
Mr Patrick Nathan, vice president of corporate information and communications at SMRT, said, “A fire alarm was triggered at Raffles Place MRT station last evening, causing the fire sprinklers to turn on and shutters to come down for safety.”
He said that cleaners were mobilised to clear the water immediately as staff reset the shutters.
“We apologise for the inconvenience,” he said.

美法庭令费雷拉 交出、删除所有艾滋病患个资

因涉泄露我国卫生部数据库1.42万艾滋病患个资,正在美国接受审讯的费雷拉,被令必须在3月29日前,永久删除他在自家电脑和任何储存设备保存的所有艾滋病患资料。 根据当地法庭文件,法庭命令费雷拉必须马上交出所有病患个资,或者在网络上张贴、刊载的资料都要删除。 此前,费雷拉被指从2018年6月至今年初,从美国肯德基州对一些媒体机构包括CNN、《海峡时报》、母舰以及Alvinology等发电邮泄露这些病患个资。 在2月16日,他再次把13名曾在樟宜监狱接受身体检查的艾滋带原者囚犯的名单,泄露给一些政府和媒体机构。 在本月22日联邦调查局提呈的证词,显示费雷拉承认他持有来自新加坡的艾滋病患数据,而如果可以说服新加坡政府释放他的丈夫吕德祥医生,他将会交出这些个资,然后自杀。否则,他将把这些资料公诸于众。 美国法官认为,费雷拉可能不仅违反了新加坡法令,也抵触了美国的法律。 新加坡卫生部有理由相信被泄露的私隐资料可能对这些病患构成伤害,例如造成就业或保险损失等。如果不下达临时禁令,费雷拉有可能还会继续散播这些资料。 目前,费雷拉仍拘留于美国费耶特县拘留中心,当地陪审团仍需数周时间商议是否对他提出起诉。 美国联邦调查局也在上周三(27日)的审讯,再提出两项指控,即费雷拉涉勒索和威胁,并非法散播这些病患个资,他面对的指控一旦罪成可判刑七年。
