Pictures Of Young Singaporean Girls Circulating On Telegram Group & Channel

Lewd pictures of women were being shared in the group with over 40,000 members. As a result, 4 people were arrested for sharing obscene materials.

While that group has since been taken down, similar groups have emerged on the messaging platform under different monikers.
This week, numerous netizens have written posts about 2 new Telegram platforms on which pictures of girls in Singapore have been circulating. One such post can be found here:

MS News has reached out to the police for a statement and will update this article when more information is available.
SG Nasi Lemak 2.0?
A number of Twitter users have publicly condemned the 2 new Telegram platforms, comparing it to the likes of SG Nasi Lemak.
One netizen has also created a document with instruction on how to report such groups.
The same user has apparently lodged a police report too.
Hope action will be taken soon
We hope swift action will be taken against those responsible for disseminating the obscene content.
Every human being deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, we can’t imagehow distressing it may be to find out photos of yourself are being circulated without consent.
Hopefully, the authorities will crack down on such channels as soon as possible, and take swift action against those responsible.
