About this episode

The episode discusses the intersection of mental health and criminal law in Singapore, featuring insights from a legal expert.

Is adultery a crime in Singapore?? Can your MP write to court on your behalf??? And if someone touches your girlfriend, can you actually hit them back??? In this episode, Senior Minister of State for Law and Transport Mr Murali Pillai SC walks us through his career as a police officer, defence lawyer and now a lawmaker, and explains what the Rule of Law actually means for us, why our legal system looks the way it does and why sometimes immoral things aren't always illegal.
