Vickreman Harvey Chettiar, 34, was sentenced to 10 months and 12 weeks' jail after admitting to harassing charges and fabricating evidence. He made threats against a judge and former President Halimah Yacob on social media, driven by his anger over drug traffickers' executions.

After he was charged, he told a police officer that he wanted to stab a judge who presided over his case at the time. Without revealing details, deputy public prosecutors Kevin Yong and Shaun Lim stated in court documents that Vickreman had earlier claimed to be suffering from mental disorders. “The accused is not to log in to any social media accounts on any devices including those not belonging to him. The accused is not to post any posts or make any comments on any social media platforms or accounts.”But on Feb 28 that year, Vickreman filled out a submission on the State Courts website, making several demands and declaring an intent not to attend the trial.
The State Courts lodged a police report and the trial was postponed due to Vickreman’s claims of illness. To help his then defence lawyer resist the prosecution’s application to revoke bail, Vickreman filed a police report on March 18, 2024.
