A man who deflated the tyres of seven cars in Woodlands has been handed a $3,000 fine.
On Nov 6, Benjamin Chia Yit Loong, 24, a student at the National University of Singapore (NUS), pleaded guilty to one charge of mischief.
The court heard that Chia, a Singaporean, was interested in climate change and environmental issues, and wished to make ownership of sport utility vehicles (SUVs) unattractive.
He thus decided to deflate the tyres of cars parked near his house and to leave fliers on the environmental damage caused by SUVs on these cars.
On Nov 19, 2024, at around 10am, Chia purchased a packet of green beans and took them with him to two multi-storey carparks in Woodlands Drive 14.
