Here is one very lucky 26 year old man in Singapore who is sentenced to jail for seven weeks and a fine of $12,000 in Singaporean dollars for possessing and importing an airsoft gun. What makes him even luckier is that he even shoots a woman passerby and injuring her with an airsoft gun.

Why did we say he is lucky with that sentence? For that violation he can face up to three years in jail and S$10,000 in fine. And for his act of shooting the woman, he can be jailed for seven years in jail, caned, and still fined.  He got off with a lighter sentence.

According to Channel News Asia, a Singaporean personal banker by the name of Ernest Sim Wen Yi, shot a woman who was passing by a block of flats where he lives. He was able to own an airsoft gun by buying an airsoft pistol in Phuket, Thailand, and managed to sneak it to Singapore in dismantled form in his luggage.

The victim was hit above the chest and when she heard a "pop" sound and noticed a unit in the block of flats turn its lights off quickly after she got hit. She called the police and they found the banker who admitted that he shot the woman out of sheer boredom.
