A woman who made headlines after claiming to be a “sovereign” when she refused to wear a mask in public was apparently outed yesterday morning.
Her name, photographs and personal details were revealed on social media, prompting a string of racist and xenophobic comments against her.
But in identifying her as the chief executive officer of a tech company, the doxxers had targeted an innocent party who was not involved in the incident at Shunfu Mart on Sunday.
The New Paper is not naming the CEO to spare her from further embarrassment.
Hours later, another woman, Paramjeet Kaur, a 40-year-old physiotherapist, was charged in court with breaching safe distancing regulations and being a public nuisance.
A charge of Kaur assaulting another woman who told her to put on a mask was dropped.
Videos of the incident on Sunday show Kaur refusing to put on a mask while claiming she is a “sovereign” who is not subject to the laws here.
Soon after her arrest on Monday night, Law and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam said that her claims were odd, and he had checked what she might have meant by referring to herself as a “sovereign”.
