SINGAPORE – A woman was given a two-year mandatory treatment order (MTO) in June 2017 for such acts as placing raw pork outside the home of a Malay-Muslim neighbour.
But two months before its end, Lee Dji Lin targeted Madam Marliah Jonet again in April this year.
Lee, 65, who has delusional disorder, pleaded guilty in court on Wednesday (Nov 6) to two counts of wounding the religious feelings of Madam Marliah, 63.
Offenders given an MTO have to undergo treatment for their mental condition in lieu of jail time.
The court heard that Lee lives in an eighth-floor flat in Tampines that is directly above the home of Madam Marliah.
In 2016, she threw raw pork at the front door of Madam Marliah’s flat, among other acts.
On April 24 this year, Madam Marliah was cleaning her home with her daughter when Lee became unhappy with the vacuuming noise.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Vincent Ong said: “The accused shouted the words, ‘anak babi’ in Malay, which means ‘baby pig’ in English, within the hearing of the victim.
“The accused had… the deliberate intention of wounding the religious feelings of the victim.”
