Episode Description
Did you know you can be charged in Singapore for something you did legally overseas?
We go through the situations that catch ordinary people off guard. Getting arrested without a warrant, missing a court date, witnessing a crime and doing nothing, making a citizen's arrest, and giving a police statement before you speak to a lawyer.
Most of these are not things you plan for. They happen fast, and the first few decisions you make can affect the whole case.
What You'll Learn
-Why Singapore law can still apply to you when you are overseas
-What a warrant of arrest is and how ordinary situations can lead to one
-When police can arrest you on the spot without a warrant
-What actually happens during an arrest and the 48 hour detention period
-Your right to remain silent and why staying silent is not always the best move
-What the law expects you to do if you witness a crime
-When a citizen's arrest is legal and why it is still risky
-The mistakes people make when giving a police statement
If you are being investigated, have been asked to give a statement, or are not sure what your next step is, do yourself a favor and speak to a good criminal defense lawyer.
