COMMENT | It seems like the last legal avenue has been exhausted for Nagaenthran Dharmalingam, as the Singaporean Court of Appeal has rejected his final appeal.

His execution could take place in a matter of days.

His last remaining hope and prayer is clemency from the President of Singapore.

I’ll summarise once again what I’ve written before regarding the background of this case:

“The story of Nagaenthran Dharmalingam begins in 2009 when he was working in Johor Bahru. His father was due to have a heart operation, so he sought to borrow RM 500 from a man, “K”.

K told him that he would loan Nagen the money if he agreed to carry something into Singapore. When Nagen refused, K assaulted Nagen, and threatened to murder his girlfriend.
