Singapore's Law Minister K Shanmugam has taken umbrage at the remarks of the lawyer representing Malaysian Yong Vui Kong in the republic's death row awaiting sentence to carried out for a drug offence.
In a press statement today sent via the Singapore High Commission in Malaysia, he said that M.Ravi, representing the 22 year old Yong, was inaccurate in attributing to him statements which he did not make. Link
