Benjamin Lim: A boy died, a father’s cry

I reproduce part of Benjamin’s father’s open letter posted in the TOC here. It broke my heart. I don’t care how many people are happily celebrating their CNY. Benjamin’s family are going through hell now reflecting on the agonizing and harrowing moments poor Benjamin had to go through it, all alone, trembling in fear, in the hands of strangers that have full authority over his freedom and the fate of his life. Let this never happened again to any child in this country.

There are now reports and statements from the relevant authorities that procedure will be subjected to review in regard to police questioning of minors without the presence of an adult. As Benjamin’s father, I felt this is necessary, but it came too late. It is necessary because we pray that the same treatment my son received from the police, will never ever happen again to another child.

The school, in my opinion, should never have handed over my son to five police officers during recess hours without having to wait for the arrival of family members. I hate to think of the amount of fear he had at that moment, how helpless he was then. To be escorted to the car park from the principle’s office, one student in uniform accompanied by a few adults in civilian clothes with police ID cards, how discreet this could be? I felt the embarrassment and the shame my son was subjected to.

As Benjamin’s father, it broke my heart when I later found out that my son was brought to the principle’s office with one bun on his hand; and a drink on the other from the school canteen.

I cannot understand why the teacher; or office staff did not allow my son to at least finish his food at the canteen before s/he brought him to the principle’s office. It was reported that my son was allowed to finish his breakfast before being taken to the police station. But that was after the interview. My boy had his last meal in the school, a cold bun.

Those adults that were with him at that moment, the police officers and staffs of Northview Secondary School, may I take this opportunity to tell you that my son would prefer to have his meal when it is hot.

When Benjamin finally left the police station at 2.50pm, he told his mother and sister that he was not given anything to eat, nothing to drink throughout the 3 or more hours of engagement with police investigators in the police station. At his age, my son gets hungry very fast after one meal. Just a cold bun and a drink, and we cannot be sure if he did finish the bun because he was under pressure then. Benjamin must be feeling hungry, thirsty, throughout the few hours he was with the police investigator. I can imagine the anxiety felt by my son throughout the ordeal.

As Benjamin’s father, it is now my duty to seek justice for my son. We do not know if he has indeed committed the alleged offence of “outrage of modesty” of the 11-year-old girl. Until the coroner hearing, we do not want to speculate whether the offence has indeed taken place.

That said, as parents we cannot forget and we cannot forgive the way my son was treated, from the school to the time he was in police custody. I have this to say to the school authorities. We as parents we entrusted our children to you. You have a duty to ensure that our children are appropriately taken care of, reasonably protected and have their interest in your priority.

To the police, I have to tell you that by sending 5 plainclothes officers to one secondary school in 2 unmarked police vehicles are never discreet. You are there to look for one secondary 3 student. You are not there to apprehend an adult suspect with full ability to escape or capable in single combat.

To Benjamin’s friends and team mates from the National Police Cadet Corps, thank you for the lovely cards and your encouraging words to SGT (NPCC) Benjamin Lim. To his colleagues from McDonald’s, he loved his job and he was grateful to be part of the team. If the branch manager would allow, please give your consent for him to keep his staff’s ID card.

Last but not least, on behalf of the family, I thank everyone for coming forward to show their support to Benjamin. We have created an email account dedicated to Benjamin, benjamin26012016@yahoo.com.sg. Friends and members of public are welcome to write to us.’

It is so painful to read the letter and to imagine what went through the mind of a 14 year old boy, alone, helpless, no one to turn to, gripped in fear, at the mercy of strangers in the name of the law of the country. Benjamin must be hoping that papa or mama was there with him, or at least a caring teacher to hold his hands, to support and comfort him during the harrowing hours in the police station.

This traumatic ordeal is going to haunt many people through the lunar New Year festivities.

They picked Akanni up one morning
Beat him soft like clay
And stuffed him down the belly
Of a waiting jeep.
What business of mine is it
So long they don't take the yam
From my savouring mouth?

They came one night
Booted the whole house awake
And dragged Danladi out,
Then off to a lengthy absence.
What business of mine is it
So long they don't take the yam
From my savouring mouth?

Chinwe went to work one day
Only to find her job was gone:
No query, no warning, no probe -
Just one neat sack for a stainless record.
What business of mine is it
So long they don't take the yam
From my savouring mouth?

And then one evening
As I sat down to eat my yam
A knock on the door froze my hungry hand.
The jeep was waiting on my bewildered lawn
Waiting, waiting in its usual silence.

And so the "tragedy porn" continues, incessantly promulgated by famous tragedy porn-mongerers like redbean, who probably get sexually excited from their proactive "self righteousness".

Of course the parents are suffering in indescribable anguish over the death of their child. What would you expect? However promoting this tragedy in post after post definitely qualifies it as PORN...

And yet, thru all this wailing and carrying-on on these folks who PROUDLY take the "moral high road"---mostly people who are UNKNOWN to the victim and his parents---have yet to ascertain whether the boy fell accidentally, was pushed, or willfully took his own life.

Got facts, motherfucker? Hey, facts are important...or not? Up to you ;-)

Sure the cops, the school---i.e. virtually all the adults involved in the case, who should know better (hmmm...apparently they didn't!)---could have probably conducted investigative proceedings in much better ways.

Also, it is VERY STRANGE that the "victim" of the alleged sexual assault hasn't made a comment.

Anyway, let the tragedy porn continue. Since you all love getting off on sanctimonious caterwauling...let your perversions feed voraciously off someone else's unspeakable tragedy!

On with the emotional masturbation you so enjoy!

agongkia said...

I feel sorry for the Lim family .
It's all Sinkies fault.Brought up children with no brain and high handed when given authority.
I do not blame the school here as they have no authority to stop the subject from being taken away.
Civil servant in all departments need to use their brain instead of hurting others just because they are empowered to do so.
One example is my neighbour employer who manage to pay the fine for his late cpf contribution but still receive a registered letter,for failing to pay the fine which he did,with heading of Notice to attend Court .
Such shame is not necessary since all his staff contribution,interest for late payment is paid up to date and fine are fully paid.
Why the need to shame him and attend Court is beyond my understanding.
Not every being can take shame lightly especially for some introvert teenagers.
I plead all civil servant to be more humane instead of abusing your power just because you think you are given authority.Do not forget many of you are overpaid while many citizens are struggling for 3 meals.
Do not bully the poor like me can or not.

PAPies & rich cronies will say too bad, that boy got no guts, weak constitution, too mollycoddled by parents. His jumping is simply cleansing of Sinkies gene pool.

Investigations and coroner's inquiry will simply show that he jumped, end of story. The police and school will not be found to have breached any laws or regulations, and everything conducted according to official & legal procedures.

In order to soothe the idiot Sinkies, PAPies will reassign the school principal to a high-paying but relaxed job in MOE HQ; the school councilor will be transferred to another school anonymously. As the police & investigation officers involved are anonymous anyway, they'll just continue their business as usual.

@ agongkia:

Singapore jurisprudence has never been noted for its sense of "proportionality". Usually the punitive measure awarded to punish the (so-called) "guilty" is overly harsh in nature....i.e. dun give chance, no pan chan, hatam the fella terok terbokok...

These are signs of an immature culture; a culture based on self-righteousness and hammering down the "accused" to validate the "goodness" or high-morality of the law-enforcer.

Punishment not enough....must make the bugger lose face too...

I doubt this is going to change anytime soon.

>> Punishment not enough....must make the bugger lose face too...<<

Also must make an "example" out of the guilty. Ok Ok, they are guilty, the evidence, the testimony, the due process...but must every "law breaker" made to be AN EXAMPLE? WTF...that is NOT the purpose of the Rule of Law. This is an example of the Rule Of Man disregarding the spirit and intent of the law, just to get some "jollies" out of hammering a person who is already guilty and down, and lost so much face...and then as a bonus MAKE AN EXAMPLE of him.

"I think such incidents of police going to schools to arrest minors the way they did to Benjamin had happened before. It is just that since no suicides happened after that, the authorities think it is normal, although it may be very inappropriate for a minor. So it takes a suicide for them to wake up to review their procedures.
Same for political parties. It takes a major defeat in elections for them to wake up and realise that something has not been right and a serious need to review their strategies (in the case of opposition) and policies (in the case of the ruling party)."

We feel sorry for the boy and family but like the father said, he felt the embarrassment and the shame of the boy. What do you expect the police to do when a little girl was molested? Send a plain clothe officer to his school, make sure he had a warm hearty breakfast before holding his hand gently and take a taxi ride to the police station so as not to embarrass the teenager?

Considering the seriousness of the crime, I think 50 police officers should descend upon the school and scare the shit out of these kids! :))

He is also a founder of ACRES, an animal welfare society. So besides humans, he is also as much concerned about dead cats in Yishun and elsewhere in Singapore.

Whatever the outcome from the investigation, the police will say it is water under the bridge and nothing can bring back Benjamin. But Benjamin is not water but a human being, more precious than the many cats found killed that received so much media and police attention. Despite spending billions $ each year on the force, all they will do is by the law, regardless of the nature of the alleged offence, age or gender. Only have cow sense and a mindset and a fear of not following zero-defect rules set by their superiors and rulers.

The ultimate fear is that should one-day there be a martial law situation, our sons in uniform will shoot our sons indiscretely going strictly by the law.

@ 1248:

I've raised this point before, and without surprise have been accused of promoting the idea of "rape culture" so prevalent among the present Nazi Feminist crowd and their sympathizers.

If you (male) are accused of "molest" or "outrage modesty", it becomes a stain on your character, and can ruin your life---even though it may not be true. It often becomes your word against the accuser, and it is ALWAYS BIASED to the women's advantage.

Now that more is revealed about this tragic incident, perhaps it could be the case of the deceased being "overly friendly" with the (consenting) girl, and unfortunately got spotted by an "anonymous" witness who misinterpreted the incident they witnessed as "molest".

Study after study has shown that eyewitness testimony is HIGHLY UNRELIABLE.

Unfortunately ALL THE (so-called "responsible") ADULTS involved in accusing this kid are not aware of this scientific fact, and immediately jump to a conclusion which rendered the poor boy "guilty".

C'mon people, kids have sexuality too. It's BIOLOGICAL. The correct way to handle teenage sexuality is by discussion, and the teaching of what behaviour is appropriate and what is not.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to place children under surveillance 24/7. If we can teach kids how to cross the road safely, we should also be teaching them how to express or exercise self-control when it comes to matters of sexuality.

Unfortunately adults (parents, cops, teachers) in Singapore tend to be IMMATURE as well when it comes to sexuality. Since these adults are FUCKED UP, how can we expect them to be UNDERSTANDING and RATIONAL when it comes to a couple of hormone-loaded kids having a grope or a smooch?

Benjamin's last meal was a cold bun. And he had to eat it while being questioned by the adults half way through his recess time. Farkers did not have the courtesy or compassion to let the boy finish his meal during recess.

And the police held him and questioned him and kept him till 2.50pm, through lunch hours without giving him a drink nor anything to eat.

Benjamin died while his mother was preparing something for him to eat after taking him home. He died, hungry, before having his last meal prepared by his mother.

How many Singaporeans have died from an external threat?

Most if not all Singaporeans are dying from internal problems.
Including poor Benjamin.

Public defender (United States)
--------------------------------

In the United States, a public defender is a lawyer appointed to represent people who cannot afford to hire an attorney.
The 1963 US Supreme Court case Gideon v. Wainwright held that the Sixth Amendment's right to counsel provision requires the government to provide legal counsel to indigent defendants in criminal cases.

What farking ccctv cameras??

CCCTV 1 (808☆ ☆ better.
Tomorrow got CNY variety shows.

Wasting tax payers monies and SPF chiak liai bee became more lazy.

My estate from void decks to shelters and practically all areas with CCTvs.

Gangs of black ants huddled together drinking in full view
of the cameras making hell of noise.

Pinoy performing artists piss drunk at 3 in morning shouting and quarrelling over tips in full view of cameras.

PRC women chatting like quarrelling from 12 to 5 am.

High tide squat and pee in front of cameras at small drains.

Called the chiak liao bee. Said will come but never come.

Untill Mr Ng Boon Gay also gave up and go to garden.

Told them to dismantle them as they see no big disturbance then no need move their fat asses.

Thats the problem with the system here. No one can make mistake, not even a single one. Everyone from parents, siblings, teachers, police and public will rip you apart. RIP.

But the gov can make mistakes and there is no one to police them.
