There are jails in the other world.

They will burn a paper effigy of a policeman to effect the arrest.

Let's check the Penal Code for that. But in case you are unsuccessful with your suicide they will charge you. Happened in the past to a few people here in SG.

Yes I know... but if death held no fear for them... what is charges in the penal code ?? :think:

Yep, I believe the aim is to deter people, not to actually charge them.
But in any case, if they are desperate enough to commit suicide.. then.. :dunno:
I think changi probably better.. free meal and accommodation :think:

Nothing more is given.
An ST article about the reason behind that:

Seems to be something typical Asian that "individuals are not sovereign over their own bodies". Something like that is not seen in any European or American law where the rights of the individuals are valued higher.

He was depressed from a series of failed business ventures and just jumped bail from narcotics offences.

Another easy way is to go Little India and look for a police car.
