Jolovan Wham faces large fines over incident in which he briefly held a smiley face sign outside a police station
An activist who held a sign bearing a smiley face as part of a one-man protest in Singapore has been charged with unlawful assembly.
Jolovan Wham said he held the cardboard sign near to a police station for just a few seconds in order to take a photo in March. The brief, lonely protest was designed to show support for two climate activists who were apparently questioned by police over a similar protest.
