A Singaporean film student has stoked the ire of netizens - and
attracted the attention of the police - after posting a video that
showed Marina Bay Sands going up in flames.
Mr Caleb Rozario, 23, is assisting in police investigations after
he uploaded an animated clip showing the landmark being attacked by
missiles on social media site Facebook in December.
The diploma student at private media school SAE Institute told The
Straits Times yesterday that the video was a special-effects
assignment.
"It wasn't a threat or a malicious video," he said. "I chose Marina
Bay Sands in particular for cinematic effect. In Hollywood movies,
they have a tendency to attack landmarks."
