Track intruder jailed
A SINGAPORE district court sentenced a 27-year-old man to six weeks in jail yesterday for breaching security fences and entering the circuit during this year’s Formula One grand prix in September.
British national Yogvitam Pravin Dhokia was arrested and charged with committing a rash act as to endanger the personal safety of the drivers after television pictures showed the intruder strolling along the track as cars sped past. “The accused’s act was not only rash but was both selfish and foolhardy,” District Judge Chay Yuen Fatt said in a brief statement on the decision, adding that Dhokia had admitted he had wanted to film the race from the track.
