Canares Rowena Ola, who is from the Philippines, is facing one charge of mischief, which carries a jail term of up to a year and a fine. The 43-year-old was expected to plead to guilty on Wednesday (Dec 2) but decided to dispute the charge while in a district court. Deputy Public Prosecutor Keith Jieren Thirumaran told District Judge Marvin Bay that Ola had earlier admitted to the offence in several statements to the authorities.
