77-year-old man charged with freeing crows, disrupting NParks’ trapping operation


SINGAPORE: A 77-year-old man who allegedly cut the cable ties of a bird trap, allowing three crows to escape, was charged in court on Tuesday (Dec 16) with disrupting a National Parks Board (NParks) operation.

Singaporean Tan See Chee, who kept quiet during his brief court mention, is accused of one count of mischief causing disruption to the performance of a public agency’s function.

NParks was carrying out crow population management operations at a grass patch near Block 181, Lorong 4 Toa Payoh, on Oct 20 this year.

At about 5.50pm that day, Tan allegedly used a pair of scissors to cut the cable ties securing a bird trap that was placed at the grass patch.
