An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
For the first charge under Section 298, the charge sheet stated that the YouTube video created by Amos Yee “contained remarks against Christianity, with the deliberate intention of wounding the religious feelings of Christians in general”.
As for the Protection from Harassment Act charge, Amos Yee’s video “contained remarks about Mr Lee Kuan Yew which was intended to be heard and seen by persons likely to be distressed” by the clip, according to the charge sheet.
The Court also granted him a bail amount set at $20,000, under the condition that he will not post, upload or otherwise distribute any comment or content, whether directly or indirectly, to any social media or online service or website, while the current case against him is ongoing. The amount has been posted, and he is out on bail.
After the charges were read, his father told reporters, “I want to take the opportunity to say very sorry to Prime Minister Lee.”
The video, called Lee Kuan Yew Is Finally Dead!, had been viewed more than 600,000 times.
