American man Mikhy Farrera Brochez who leaked HIV data a ‘pathological liar’, says Singapore government
- Brochez claimed in a series of Facebook posts that he had been tortured by Singapore police and gang raped by inmates who gave him HIV
- Singapore’s health and law enforcement authorities insisted Brochez’s allegations were false or unsubstantiated with evidence
Brochez, who was deported from Singapore in April after completing his jail term, claimed in a series of Facebook posts on Wednesday morning that he had been tortured by Singapore police and gang-raped by inmates who gave him HIV.
He said he reported the rape to the commanding officer of his prison block and was told “well, you’re gay you should enjoy it”.
Officers from the attorney general’s chambers also “kept interfering” with his medical treatment, said Brochez, who is now back in the United States and reportedly living out of his car. Brochez also said he had not stolen the data nor leaked it but had repeatedly provided evidence to various government agencies “seeking help with the data leak”.
In two separate statements on Wednesday, Singapore’s health and law enforcement authorities insisted Brochez’s allegations were false or unsubstantiated with evidence.
