was in court on Monday for her own charges of refusing to attend police investigations and a court mention, as well as spitting at police officers.
According to the prosecution, the police first investigated Lee for her behaviour in the trial of Benjamin Glynn in August 2021. Station Inspector Noor Azhar Daud testified about how he was called to the State Courts in August 2021 to attend to a case where a woman was shouting at the judge. Lee also responded via email, telling SI Azhar that she did not understand why she was being investigated as the case had been over for a year, with no victim and no summons.
"Okay. We're here just to deliver the document," responded one of the police officers."Can we just put inside? We are from Central Police Division." "Since we heard she also called for police, we waited for the police, probably the other police officers might convince her to open the door," said SI Azhar.One of them told her through the window slats:"First, this is public corridor. Second, you call for police so we are here to help you. So can you open the door so we can help you? Do you still need police assistance?"The uniformed officer responded:"As you know they are IO, they are not trespasser.
