A man who urinated to a police officer during his arrest was jailed for eight months and two weeks on Friday, July 6th.
Balasubramaniam Thevathas, 34, pleaded guilty in state courts to two counts of use of force
Deputy Attorney General (DPP), Joanne Leong, said in court that Balasubramaniam had taken a taxi along Orchard Road early in the morning of April 27 after drinking with his friends. 19659004] Balasubramaniam requests several times the change of destination and becomes hostile towards the taxi driver. Fearing trouble, the driver drove to the Tanglin Police Division for help from the police. Balasubramaniam paid the driver, who then drove away.
While the station's chief inspector Mazelan Selemat was occupying Balasubramaniam, the latter walked back and forth, saying that he was unfairly treated

Balasubramaniam was taken to the office of Tanglin HQ by another officer, Staff Sergeant Kwan Chee Weng. While he was in the room, Balasubramaniam dropped his shorts and began to urinate towards Kwan and another policeman.
The police officers quickly moved away and one of them managed to tear off Balasubramaniam 's underwear. However, Balasubramaniam dropped his underwear before urinating again and directing him to Kwan, some of whom landed on the officer.
Balasubramaniam's actions were "disrespectful and very degrading," said DPP Leong. Noting that Balasubramaniam was jailed in 2016 for beating a policeman, the prosecutor demanded that he be imposed at least eight months and two weeks in prison.
For having used criminal force against a police officer, Balasubramaniam could have been imprisoned for four years, or a fine, or both.
