A Singaporean man who allegedly made more than 1,000 silent calls to the police between April 21 and 28 has been charged with four counts of obstructing public servants in the discharge of their functions, The Strait Times<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

Foo Jia Hong, 37, who appeared in a district court on May 13, is said to have made the calls to Yishun, Bedok, Geylang and Ang Mo Kio neighbourhood police centers.<\/p>\n

Each center received between 24 and 425 silent calls, according to court documents.<\/p>\n

“Foo took elaborate measures to conceal his identity, including using a foreign number to make the calls and remaining silent during the calls,” a police spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

On May 13, Foo was ordered to be remanded at the Institute of Mental Health for a medical examination. His case will be heard again in court on May 26.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
