"prostituted"--Mr Nair likes this word very much. I think this is very personal attack to
female judge, disregarding to her martial status. This word land him in trouble again.
i would wander if he used more vague words, police and/ or AGC can close
one eye.
What did Chee Soon Juan help Nair for this disciplinary proceeding?
updated Nov 30, 2009: Madan Assomull's telephone number is (65) 6339 4466
80. The trial of this disciplinary proceeding has been set for either Feb 22, 2010 to Feb 26, 2010 or March 08, 2010 to March 12, 2010 in Singapore . I have a right to appear and defend myself at trial but you can see the difficulty of this I am sure. Please note that as per your request in your letter dated Nov 4th 2009, the March dates are suitable.
Charge No 5
132. This charge is similar to the Judge Belinda Ang Saw Ean charge. “You, in your blog post Singapore Dissident dated Nov 30, 2008 entitled “Justice Judith Prakash. Another Kangaroo Judge", did make the following offending statement insulting the judiciary of Singapore namely the "Honorable" Justice Judith Prakash: "Judge Judith Prakash of the Supreme Court Singapore has prostituted herself in her capacity as a judge hearing the Kangaroo T Shirt case on Nov 24, 2008 by being nothing more than an employee of Lee Kuan Yew and his son, whom he appointed Prime Minister. By her actions in sending these young men to prison and making them pay crippling court costs of $5,000.00 each, she has shamelessly disgraced herself, her office as a judge, disgraced the Constitution of Singapore and Singapore ."
133. This blog post was written by me after my return to California .

Oh SLS has done some home work before bring Nair to court.
