Strategic Legal Research Series: False Imprisonment on Domestic Workers in Singapore – A Comparative Report
Justice Without Borders (JWB) is excited to launch our comparative law report on false imprisonment laws in Singapore and the Commonwealth, a research project jointly-developed with Morrison Foerster.
On 19 April 2024, with 40 Singapore-based lawyers in attendance, JWB and Morrison Foerster co-organised a CPD seminar featuring this comparative law research. Our heartfelt thanks to our esteemed speakers, Wendy Low of Eldan Law LLP and Mark Teo of Herbert Smith Freehills, for their invaluable contributions towards discussions on the legal and practical application of false imprisonment laws in Singapore on migrant workers. We also extend our sincerest gratitude to Rishikeesh Wijaya and Emily Duffy of Morrison Foerster, for providing critical insights into the laws of false imprisonment in the U.K., and for their continued support of JWB’s work.
This research is important not only to our organisation but also to pro bono lawyers and other nonprofit organisations around the world that work with vulnerable persons. To all those who have contributed to this research, in both small and big ways, you have aided our efforts to make justice accessible to migrant workers and other vulnerable groups in our communities.
