A 24-year-old Singaporean man was placed on 15 months' probation for amputating his pet rat's limb without anaesthesia, and illegally taking and selling wildlife.Jenson Neo, who was caught in a sting operation by the National Parks Board (NParks) in 2024, pleaded guilty to five of 13 charges under the Animals and Birds Act on Tuesday (July 7), reported Lianhe Zaobao.The remaining charges were taken into consideration for sentencing.According to court documents cited by Zaobao, Neo had amputated his pet rat's injured front right leg on July 9, 2022, after believing the limb had become gangrenous.He carried out the procedure himself despite not being a qualified veterinarian.Before the procedure, Neo applied only numbing cream to the rat's leg, which was insufficient to alleviate the animal's pain.Illegal attempted sale of civetNeo came into the attention of authorities in 2024 when he attempted to sell a civet online. He had found a common palm civet near his home along Jalan Dermawan on Jan 26, 2024, and illegally kept it as a pet for about a month, according to court documents.

SINGAPORE — A night-shift nurse who rented a room in an HDB flat won a claim against her landlord after a dispute over daytime use of an air-conditioner escalated into harassment, an early termination of the tenancy and, eventually, hearings at the Small Claims Tribunals (SCT).The landlord was ordered to pay the nurse $1,536.47, including an $800 security deposit that she had withheld.The landlord later tried to set aside the judgment after repeatedly failing to attend court hearings, but Tribunal Magistrate Leon Abraham Tan dismissed the application, finding that she had deliberately stayed away despite being given multiple opportunities to appear.In grounds of decision released on July 7, the magistrate criticised what he described as the landlord's «airy disregard» for court dates, and said her conduct reflected «a conspicuous lack of respect for the judicial process».The names of the nurse and landlord were redacted in the judgment.The dispute arose after the Malaysian nurse rented a common bedroom in the five-room HDB flat from September 2024 under a one-year tenancy agreement.
