Leader of the Opposition and Workers’ Party chief Pritam Singh has announced his intention to appeal his conviction and sentence.

He was found guilty of two charges of lying to parliament over false testimonies he gave to a Committee of Privileges during its inquiry into former WP Member of Parliament Raeesah Khan's conduct, and handed the maximum fine of $7,000 for each of the two charges.

What went down in the sentencing?

Should the public expect potential legal proceedings with regards to WP MPs Faisal Manap and Sylvia Lim? And might there be potential domino effects on the Workers’ Party?

On this episode of Morning Shot, Benjamin Joshua Ong, Assistant Professor of Law at Singapore Management University shares his insights.
