阿叔阿嫂天天在牛车水唱歌,造成商家不满,受访律师说,行为可构成公共滋扰。 

《新明日报》星期一(12月8日)报道,通往宝塔街的牛车水地铁站出口处,每晚都有一群阿叔阿嫂唱歌,甚至自备音箱及投影仪,附近商家申诉,生意严重受影响。

附近职员透露,此前已多次投诉,也曾报过警,但每次警察来的时候,他们就收敛一下,过后又再继续。

《新明日报》记者星期一晚上走访时,发现依旧有约10名阿叔阿嫂聚集在这一处,其中一名阿叔还在拉二胡。

对此,赢必胜事务所律师黄国彦受访时认为,这种行为可以构成公共滋扰。“其实,受到影响的人可以报警,或者找议员帮忙。”

正气律师事务所创办人萧锦耀律师同样指出,根据刑事法典第268条公共秩序法,若在公共场合的行为给他人带来不便或滋扰的话,那就已触犯滋扰罪。

AI Overview
在新加坡和马来西亚的《刑事法典》(Penal Code)中,第268条并非专门的《公共秩序法》,而是关于“公共滋扰/妨害”(Public Nuisance)的法律条文。该法旨在保障公众的共同安宁、健康与安全。 [1, 2, 3]
1. 核心定义(刑事法典第268条)
根据《刑事法典》第268条文规定:
任何人若做出任何行为,或进行非法的疏漏(即不作为),从而对公众或附近居住/拥有财产的普通居民造成共同伤害、危险或烦扰,或对公众合法行使权利造成阻碍和损害,即构成“公共滋扰”。 [1, 2]
2. 违法行为示例
该条文涵盖的范围非常广泛,常见违规行为包括但不限于:
  • 噪音污染: 在住宅区制造过大、持续的噪音,严重影响邻里安宁。
  • 路面与公共空间阻碍: 违规占用公共通道、非法倾倒垃圾或放置物品对公众造成危险。
  • 公共安全危害: 在闹市区进行未经许可的危险特技、燃放烟花爆竹或照明弹(如近期发生的武吉免登快闪骚乱)。 [1, 2]
3. 法律惩处(以新加坡及马来西亚为例)
  • 新加坡: 违反公共秩序或滋扰公众的行为,除了常规的罚款和轻罪处罚外,也可根据公共滋扰相关法案进行提控。对于造成严重公共秩序威胁的行为,警方通常会通过《公共秩序法》(Public Order Act)进行联合惩治。
  • 马来西亚: 根据《刑事法典》第290条文,触犯此公共滋扰罪者,可被判处最高罚款400至数百令吉不等(具体视情节而定);如果行为还伴随严重危险或蓄意滋事,警方会根据相关条款进行起诉。 [1, 2]

AI Overview
+1
Section 268 of the Penal Code (e.g., in Singapore or India) defines the criminal offence of Public Nuisance. It outlines that a person commits this offence if they do any act or illegal omission that causes common injury, danger, or annoyance to the public, or to people in general who dwell or occupy property in the vicinity.
Key Elements of the Offence
  • Common Injury or Annoyance: The act must affect the general public or a community, rather than just a single private individual.
  • Illegal Omissions: Failing to perform a legal duty that subsequently causes public harm also falls under this section.
  • No "Greater Good" Defense: A public nuisance is not legally excused simply because it may cause some convenience or advantage to other individuals.
Examples of Public Nuisance
  • Environmental or Noise Pollution: Causing excessive, unreasonable noise or emitting foul odors that disrupt an entire neighborhood.
  • Obstruction of Public Spaces: Illegally blocking a public walkway, road, or right-of-way.
  • Unsanitary Conditions: Dumping refuse or keeping a property in a condition that attracts pests or creates a severe health hazard.
Penalties
Depending on the exact jurisdiction and the severity of the nuisance, a public nuisance charge can result in a fine, imprisonment, or both. In Singapore, for instance, a public nuisance conviction generally carries a fine, while severe instances that escalate to causing public harm or fake security threats (such as under related nuisance sections like Section 268A) can attract lengthy jail terms and hefty fines.
(Note: If you are located in India, the equivalent law under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) is Section 270.)
