PoThePanda's CID/ISD Lim Kopi Session

PoThePanda said:

On the 02/03/2009, I was picked up from my house at about 11am by 4 persons who identified themselves as CID.They claimed they were investigating a post on Molotov Cocktails that I had posted on the forum Stomp. With regards to this particular allegation, I wish to state that I had posted an article on Molotov Cocktails on Stomp sometime late last year. The article was copied and pasted from Wikipedia, and was posted up for information value due to its appearance in the popular game Left 4 Dead. 2-3 weeks AFTER I posted the article, the MP Seng Han Thong got burnt. Apparently, someone made a police report that I had instigated the old man to burn the MP, via posting that article.

I was driven back to Cantonment Complex and subjected to an interrogation by these persons. Chief among them was 1 who identified himself as Sebastian, supposedly from the ISD.

Recommended by Anonymous Coward: "Would there be a show of solidarity with PoThePanda in the SG blogosphere? I think not. To those who claimed to "celebrate bloggers' independent voices" (Blogout! ’09), "dedicated to protecting its members" (Association of Bloggers (Singapore)) — are you now going to swallow your own slogans?"

In tandem with some other incidents I know of, it leads me to suspect that the justice system is being abused by people in order to settle personal scores....
