SINGAPORE - A 39-year-old man who refused to wear a mask while on the MRT train was arrested by the police on Sunday (May 9) for allegedly causing public nuisance and flouting safe distancing measures.
In a video circulating on social media, the man can be seen telling fellow commuters loudly: I m very religious. I hate seeing uncles, granddads with the mask on.
When a fellow commuter offers him a mask, the man rejects it. The video also shows a commuter leaving her seat when he takes the one next to her.
