Talk so much.
Never get to the critical matter.
She said she checked her passport before the trip.
BUT
She never said that she confirm that the passport pages were NOT torn, before the trip.
The Stupid Reporter/Journalist never clarified this point. Quality of reporting in SG is very low.
If they can confirm this, then the JB Custom officer is under suspicion.
If not, then if it is true that her passport was torn before being handed to JB Custom, then she is lucky to be allowed to go back to SG with only a RM200 fine.
Look carefully at the photo.
2 consecutive pages were affected.
The pages were obviously CUT because a TEAR is not so perfectly consistent over 2 pages.
It looks like a template cutter was used.
The edges of the cut part is CLEAN.
If a page is torn, there will be paper fibres showing over the edges.
