As funny as they might seem initially, gang chants are inappropriate in most situations. With the police constantly cracking down on unlawful societies, you wouldn’t want to see yourself captured online, yelling out the slogans.
Especially if you’re an actual gang member.
Police Investigating Video of People Shouting Gang Chants in Havelock Road Funeral Procession
A video has been circulating on Facebook, showing a group of people as well as a cameraman following a funeral procession along Havelock Road. It took place on Wednesday (26 May) at around 3:00pm.
The clip showed four vehicles adorned with LED lights, playing loud music as they followed behind each other for the procession. At the back was a lorry, the hearse, as well as a bus for family members.
According to Lianhe Zaobao, the group clustered behind the hearse are believed to be the immediate family of the deceased. The group of at least 20 did not seem to abide by social distancing rules.
In addition, the Chinese paper noted that the National Environmental Agency (NEA) disallows mourners to follow the hearse during processions.
Towards the end of the clip, when the hearse stopped, a man in a grey shirt began to yell out a gang chant which was echoed by several other funeral attendees.
They also shouted “big brother”, presumably addressing the deceased.
The police are aware of the incident and investigations are currently ongoing.
Gang Members Jailed After Footage of Them Reciting Gang Poem in Funeral Were Leaked
As you are aware, this is a serious matter. In fact, so serious that people are arrested for doing so.
Lim Wei Xuan, 26, invited several gang members to his father’s funeral which was held at a pavilion at Block 37 Circuit Road on 5 April 2020.
Supposedly, the gang members gathered in front of the altar and one of them began reciting the “secret society’s poem”.
Alvin Mo Boon Heng, 35, then places some joss sticks at the altar and the men began shouting out gang slogans.
One of the deceased’s family members apparently recorded the whole thing and shared it with other family members on WhatsApp.
By now we should all know that forwarding videos on WhatsApp is extremely easy, especially when you’re one of those aunties constantly spreading videos and fake news to people.
Perhaps due to the WhatsApp Aunties skills when it comes to sharing things, the police soon found out about the 22-second video and arrested the gang members shortly afterwards.
