Sim Ann on investigations into outrage of modesty cases

The police have internal controls to ensure that cases under investigation are followed up promptly and thoroughly, but there are no fixed timelines as proceedings depend on the complexity of each case. This applies to outrage of modesty cases as well. Securing CCTV footage and other evidence is part of the process and the police may issue written orders to do so, where necessary. Second Minister for Home Affairs Sim Ann said this in parliament on Wednesday (Oct 7) in reply to an MP’s questions.
