I believe this ruling is put in place, so that if you or a group
of you were to be caught partaking in an unlawful assembly, this
rule shall be dangled before your sorry face!
It is the same as if you have committed a serious crime like the
murder case in Kallang, you can be denied your right to a lawyer
even though you are supposed to have your rights to a lawyer.
In other words, it can be modified at will as they deem fit.
Period.
