Letter from Republic Poly on student topless photos

Receive a message from Benjamin Chow of Republic Poly Office of Corporate Communications, as follows:

Dear Sir,

I refer to your posting entitled, "Uncensored full version of Singapore polytechnic girl topless photo at garden".

We are aware and grateful of your concern to the victim whose pictures were posted on public websites without permission.

The Polytechnic would like to clarify that the pictures were first posted onto a password-protected private blog. The student is a victim of a prank which resulted in the leaked pictures being posted online. We are helping the female student investigate the source of the leak.

The student is deeply traumatised by this whole episode, and is currently undergoing counselling. Our disciplinary team has started their investigation and action will be taken if a culprit is found.

All students have been asked to exercise extreme caution when posting pictures and information online.

We appeal to your goodwill and compassion - and humbly request that you remove this post and photos from your site - so as not to add to her agony.

For any clarification, please contact help-OCC@rp.sg.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Benjamin Chow

Of course, as a responsible netizen, I have masked her face in the original post, and have redirect the link to else where without showing off her face.... But the Singapore local media also plays an important role!!!!
