Is Minister K Shanmugam going to keep his silence on the police's decision regarding the NUS scandal?

by Simon LimI applause Education Minister Ong Ye Kung who came out promptly not to defend National University of Singapore for imposing a one semester suspension on Nick Lim but to admit that the penalties imposed on him are manifestly inadequate which they indeed are.Bravo Mr Ong. The true measure of any person is not where he/she stands in times of comfort and convenience but where he/she stands in times of challenges and controversies and in this case, Ong YE stood well.Now, Home Affair and Law Minister K Shanmugam. For his voyeurism on Ms Monica Baey, Nicholas Lim was only given a 12 months conditional warning by the police and the public is clearly unhappy and upset and rightly so. Police's decision could be a directive from the Attorney General Chamber (AGC) but as a citizen, I feel that K. Shanmugam shouldn't just continue to maintain his silence about this particular case but to further explain to Singaporeans what motivated AGC or the police to make that kids grove decision. Nicholas Lim is not a teenager. Before the police made that decision, did they go through his laptop? Are they sure that he didn't commit any other voyeurisms on other females as well etc?
