In one clip, the woman says to a couple of other people: "You don't tell people what to do, that's the law."
One replies that she should not have made an indecent gesture, but the woman says: "You should have minded your own business... in the first place, you should not have been shouting at me."
In another clip, at a different location, she can be seen covering her face with her arm and holding on to the phone of a man, while arguing with another group of people.

In it, she claims to be a "sovereign", saying: "It means I have nothing to do with the police, it means I have no contract with the police. They have no say over me."
A man, who is off-screen, responds: "This doesn't even make any sense. If you're a person in Singapore, you have to follow the rules of Singapore."
But the woman replies: "That's the thing - I'm not a person, I'm 'we the people'."

The police said on Sunday that they received a call for assistance around 12.15pm that day at 320 Shunfu Road.
According to preliminary investigations, the woman in the video, a 40-year-old Singaporean who had previously breached safe distancing measures, was not wearing a mask and had allegedly assaulted a 47-year-old woman who advised her to put one on.

In a statement, a police spokesman said the police take a serious view of such abusive and irresponsible behaviour, especially in the current Covid-19 situation.
"We urge the public to take the circuit breaker measures seriously and comply with the safe distancing measures," he said.

PHOTO: Bible instructs followers to obey the government. "Obey the government, for God is the One who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the law of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow." (Romans 13:1-2).

PHOTO: The only time we are to disobey a law is if it is morally wrong — not in our opinion — but in God's sight. Otherwise, we are to be good citizens and make the church and state work together for good.
Let's lay aside any anger or disappointment and start working together for the good of our nation. [2]
