Many questions have been raised regarding the police investigation of Ms Teo Soh Lung and Mr Roy Ngerng over their posting of comments on Cooling-Off Day during the Bukit Batok by-election. The public is confused and concerned about the perplexing actions of the Elections Department and the police over the matter.
The SDP will hold a public forum ‘Feeling The Heat on Cooling-off Day: Clampdown on Freedom of Expression’ to further deliberate on this matter and to discuss the impartiality – or the lack of it – of the way Cooling-off Day regulations are applied.
