  Last year, 1,455 underaged smokers were caught puffing on a cigarette. And for selling cigarettes to teens under the age of 18, six retailers were prosecuted. The legal age for smoking in Singapore is 18. Those caught in the act will be fined S$50 the first time, and up to S$100 for second and subsequent offences. Under the law, those caught buying cigarettes for teens will be fined S$2,500. Those who give tobacco products to teenagers will be fined S$500. The penalties are doubled for subsequent offences. (Straits Times 6 May 2001)

A study of a sample group of 55 young female offenders who were arrested in 1998 and 1999 showed that most offenders did not come from poor families. About seven out of 10 girls came from families that had monthly incomes of over S$1,500, while about one in 10 were from families earning more than S$5,000 a month. The study on female juveniles by the Subordinate Courts was released yesterday. It showed that almost two out of five fathers who took a back seat were neglectful of their daughters, while more than half of the mothers were overly indulgent. (Straits Times 19 Apr 2001)

He had been convicted last year of belonging to an unlawful assembly, but had been put on probation for 18 months. (Straits Times 27 Dec 2000)
