FORMER Singaporean lawyer Gopalan Nair, now back home in the United States, has retracted apologies and statements he made in court here last month.

Full Story

What a loser to attack Singapore's judiciary with a foul mouth!

At least CSJ had the guts to do so in Singapore and he deserves mention for that!

Haha... a coward that only know where to hide. It geos to show his standing as a man whose action is not in line with his words... Despise him!!!!

If that is cowardice, then the only other option is stupidity. which one would you choose?

Seem like the 2 months behind bars make no difference at all. To silence this loser for good is to give him lashes on the butt, like what happened to Michael Fay. This for sure will work, as Michael Fay could then meet up with this Nair in US and go into obscurity.

The govt is naive enough to trust this piece of 2nd class american ****.

why are we spending so much time and giving him so much publicity? the best thing to do is to ignore him.period.

What would you posters do if you were in Gopalan Nair's shoes? Would you shoot yourself in the foot by not apologising, thereby prolonging your prison sentence? I suspect almost all of us would do the practical thing by apologising & appearing remorseful, to obtain an early release. After reaching the safety of the U.S., I suspect almost everyone of us would then go public about any perceived injustice at the way we were treated or imprisoned. Come on! Be truthful & shame the devil!

Survival instinct......

If the Singapore Government still wants to get him, they could apply to sue in the US courts.

Of course, the US rules defamation and contempt differently, where the aggrieved party has to prove it's not what the other person said. Don't think the Singaporean govt wants to play according to American rules.
