SINGAPORE
(AP) — Police in Singapore say a
25-year-old woman has been arrested for painting graffiti and placing stickers
on public property.
Graffiti
and other forms of vandalism are very rare in Singapore. Almost all past cases
have involved foreign men, including American teenager Michael Fay, who was
caned in 1994.
Police
said in a statement Tuesday that a convicted vandal would face mandatory caning
and a fine or jail term. However, Singapore law exempts women and males 50 or
older from being caned.
Police
did not identify the woman or her nationality. The paintings and stickers were
cryptic messages written mostly in the local English dialect.
The
police said vandals would be “dealt with severely.”
