【藐视法庭诉讼】总检察署要求判罚李绳武1.5万元

因为2017年7月的一则脸书贴文，批评我国政府“好诉讼” （ligitious），法庭制度“温顺” （pliant），李显扬之子李绳武，遭总检察署起诉藐视法庭。案件今早开审，总检察署要求高庭判处李绳武1万5000元的罚款。若不缴交罚款，就必须以两周监禁代替。 受理此案的高庭法官加南拉美斯称，他需时斟酌，案件展期至日后下判。李绳武今日没到高庭。早前李绳武已表示不会再继续参与诉讼。 政府律师指责今年2月至月，总检察署多次以电邮和邮件到他在美国哈佛大学的住处，要求他今早出庭。 尽管早前李绳武已说明，有关贴文只是设定为只供朋友圈浏览，不公开大众阅读，却还是引来三大媒体和总检察署的注意，令他对新加坡政府琐事必究的程度感到惊讶。 而政府律师却指责，李绳武没在贴文里要求脸书朋友不要转发、也不肯揭露自己的脸书朋友圈有多少人，“似乎有隐瞒”；政府律师也指李沉浸于李光耀孙子光环，接受外媒采访，却诋毁祖父守护的司法制度。
