Mugging...

Been in the state of mugging mode since last week. Mugged criminal law and SAF Act Chapter 295 like mad for fear of failing the test but nontheless, I passed it with so called flying colors larh. 88% =)

Next up on my mugging list, Powered Pleasure Craft Driving Licence (PPCDL) and advance theory. Gosh PPCDL's theory is madness larh. There's like 150 A4 pages with word size as small as size 7. Imagine the amount of content man. My last such encounter with so much content was in JC's biology text man. Scaryy... I dunnoe how I'm gonna get through this amount of crap. Haiz just gotta mugg it hard I guess.

After all I'm the GOD of Mugger!

Muggin-

Misses...

Being on course sucks big time.

I miss doing duty with SEDET 2. (shocking to hear that from a nsf eh!)

I miss driving the RHIBs.

I miss cheking my OA card for stupid mails like "SAF OFFER!,Chalet bunglows at cheaper rate!, Free entry to Zouk for Specialist Party!" this sort of crap; and of course the serious mails.

I miss camp!

Its freaking ex to travel to and fro Clementi camp. I literally spent like 20bucks on transportation already. Plus ocassional canteen breaks which accounts for like 15bucks. Its expensive going on course larh. SAF should cover transportation fees man. You're sending me on course and expecting me to pay!!! Its like asking me to go for range and not giving me a rifle! Nonsense larh.

Oh I had my first driving lesson yesterday night. It was sort of a last minute thing. Started with the basics. How to start off and stop. Still okie. I stalled 3 times if not for that guy's yaking. Still raw i guess, need lots of practice. Anyone willing to lend me a manual car for practice? Gotta look for Mr Simpson in camp to teach me how to drive better with the 1.5tonner! hahahah. We agreed that if he were to teach me driving, I'll teach him to drive the RHIBs. Darn drivings hard.

Anyway, I'm one step closer to getting both my powerboat and driving licence. Hurrah to my new year resolution. =)

Just Study LAW...

Its been one week of pure mental torture.

1) Military Law (SAF Act Chapter 295)
2) Penal Codes (also a form or Law)
3) Civil Law
4) Rights of a soldier and police officer which are governed by Law (duh!)
5) CPC

Yes thats the amount of info I've been absorbing for the past week as I attended this course. Laws are simple, but hard to understand. My god, thank god I'm not taking law in university. Imagine racking ur brains out to understand a simple 1 liner law! Here's an example...

Penal Code Chapter 224 Section442. Whoever commits criminal trespass by entering into, or remaining in, any building, tent or vessel used as a human dwelling, or any building used as a place for worship or as a place for the custody of property, is said to commit “house-trespass”.

Simple to understand? So what happens if the couple of this house is quarreling and somehow a police officer notices it and ENTERS the house to stop the quarrel? Is he trespassing? Can the couple sue the police officer?
Answer: NO
Why? : Cos he is entering the house in order to stop a quarrel which he SUSPECTS might escalate to a fight. He is indirectly trying to prevent something grevious from happening. And according to the LAW, he is protected by Chapter 305D Section 17 which states "No suit or other legal proceedings shall lie personally against any member, officer or employee of the Agency or any other person acting under the direction of the Agency for anything which is in good faith done or intended to be done in the execution or purported execution of this Act or any other written law." Also known as the law of good faith.

This also leads us to another law which indirectly will lead us to another and another. My goodness. And there's the difference with culpable homicide and murder and more...

Well here's what I deemed as the most important law of all.

Right of private defence(Chapter 224,Section 96-106).

Nothing done in private defence is an offence.
96. Nothing is an offence which is done in the exercise of the right of private defence.

Right of private defence of the body and of property.
97. Every person has a right, subject to the restrictions contained in section 99, to defend —

(a) his own body, and the body of any other person, against any offence affecting the human body;

(b) the property, whether movable or immovable, of himself or of any other person, against any act which is an offence falling under the definition of theft, robbery, mischief or criminal trespass, or which is an attempt to commit theft, robbery, mischief or criminal trespass.

Right of private defence against the act of a person of unsound mind.
98. When an act, which would otherwise be a certain offence, is not that offence, by reason of the youth, the want of maturity of understanding, the unsoundness of mind, or the intoxication of the person doing that act, or by reason of any misconception on the part of that person, every person has the same right of private defence against that act which he would have if the act were that offence.

Illustrations
(a) Z, under the influence of madness, attempts to kill A. Z is guilty of no offence. But A has the same right of private defence which he would have if Z were sane.

(b) A enters, by night, a house which he is legally entitled to enter. Z, in good faith, taking A for a housebreaker, attacks A. Here Z, by attacking A under this misconception, commits no offence. But A has the same right of private defence against Z, which he would have if Z were not acting under that misconception.

Acts against which there is no right of private defence.
99. —(1) There is no right of private defence against an act which does not reasonably cause the apprehension of death or of grievous hurt, if done, or attempted to be done, by a public servant acting in good faith under colour of his office, though that act may not be strictly justifiable by law.

(2) There is no right of private defence against an act which does not reasonably cause the apprehension of death or of grievous hurt, if done, or attempted to be done, by the direction of a public servant acting in good faith under colour of his office, though that direction may not be strictly justifiable by law.

(3) There is no right of private defence in cases in which there is time to have recourse to the protection of the public authorities.

Extent to which the right may be exercised.
(4) The right of private defence in no case extends to the inflicting of more harm than it is necessary to inflict for the purpose of defence.

Explanation 1.
A person is not deprived of the right of private defence against an act done, or attempted to be done, by a public servant, as such, unless he knows, or has reason to believe, that the person doing the act is such public servant.

Explanation 2.
A person is not deprived of the right of private defence against an act done, or attempted to be done, by the direction of a public servant, unless he knows, or has reason to believe, that the person doing the act is acting by such direction; or unless such person states the authority under which he acts, or, if he has authority in writing, unless he produces such authority, if demanded.

When the right of private defence of the body extends to causing death.
100. The right of private defence of the body extends, under the restrictions mentioned in section 99, to the voluntary causing of death or of any other harm to the assailant, if the offence which occasions the exercise of the right is of any of the following descriptions:

(a) such an assault as may reasonably cause the apprehension that death will otherwise be the consequence of such assault;

(b) such an assault as may reasonably cause the apprehension that grievous hurt will otherwise be the consequence of such assault;

(c) an assault with the intention of committing rape;

(d) an assault with the intention of gratifying unnatural lust;

(e) an assault with the intention of kidnapping or abducting;

(f) an assault with the intention of wrongfully confining a person, under circumstances which may reasonably cause him to apprehend that he will be unable to have recourse to the public authorities for his release.

When such right extends to causing any harm other than death.
101. If the offence is not of any of the descriptions enumerated in section 100, the right of private defence of the body does not extend to the voluntary causing of death to the assailant, but does extend, under the restrictions mentioned in section 99, to the voluntary causing to the assailant of any harm other than death.

Commencement and continuance of the right of private defence of the body.
102. The right of private defence of the body commences as soon as a reasonable apprehension of danger to the body arises from an attempt or threat to commit the offence, though the offence may not have been committed; and it continues as long as such apprehension of danger to the body continues.

When the right of private defence of property extends to causing death.
103. The right of private defence of property extends, under the restrictions mentioned in section 99, to the voluntary causing of death or of any other harm to the wrongdoer, if the offence, the committing of which, or the attempting to commit which, occasions the exercise of the right, is an offence of any of the following descriptions:

(a) robbery;

(b) house-breaking by night;

(c) mischief by fire committed on any building, tent or vessel, which building, tent or vessel is used as a human dwelling, or as a place for the custody of property;

(d) theft, mischief or house-trespass, under such circumstances as may reasonably cause apprehension that death or grievous hurt will be the consequence, if such right of private defence is not exercised.

When such right extends to causing any harm other than death.
104. If the offence, the committing of which, or the attempting to commit which, occasions the exercise of the right of private defence, is theft, mischief, or criminal trespass, not of any of the descriptions enumerated in section 103, that right does not extend to the voluntary causing of death, but does extend, subject to the restrictions mentioned in section 99, to the voluntary causing to the wrongdoer of any harm other than death.

Commencement and continuance of the right of private defence of property.
105. —(1) The right of private defence of property commences when a reasonable apprehension of danger to the property commences.

(2) The right of private defence of property against theft continues till the offender has effected his retreat with the property, or till the assistance of the public authorities is obtained, or till the property has been recovered.

(3) The right of private defence of property against robbery continues as long as the offender causes or attempts to cause to any person death or hurt or wrongful restraint, or as long as the fear of instant death or of instant hurt or of instant personal restraint continues.

(4) The right of private defence of property against criminal trespass or mischief, continues as long as the offender continues in the commission of criminal trespass or mischief.

(5) The right of private defence of property against house-breaking by night continues as long as house-trespass which has been begun by such house-breaking continues.

Right of private defence against a deadly assault when there is risk of harm to an innocent person.
106. If, in the exercise of the right of private defence against an assault which reasonably causes the apprehension of death, the defender is so situated that he cannot effectually exercise that right without risk of harm to an innocent person, his right of private defence extends to the running of that risk.

Illustration
A is attacked by a mob who attempt to murder him. He cannot effectually exercise his right of private defence without firing on the mob, and he cannot fire without risk of harming young children who are mingled with the mob. A commits no offence if by so firing he harms any of the children.
