SINGAPORE: A woman is winning praise online after she bravely confronted a middle-aged MRT commuter of taking surreptitious pictures of her. While most are appreciating how the woman made the man delete the photos off his phone, a minority have deemed her response an “overreaction.”

TikTok user Daisy @daizamazze revealed on Sunday (26 Feb) that the incident took place around 10 pm the night before while she was on board the East-West Line train when she felt someone filming her. She confronted the man, who had greying hair, at the station and asked him to delete the pictures of her. The middle-aged Chinese man initially pretended to use his phone and ignored Daisy but she said: “There’s no point ignoring me. I saw the photos, you can delete the photos please.”
