| Strict Liability in Criminal Law: A Re-Examination Hor, Yew Meng Michael [1996] Sing JLS 312 (Dec)The mens rea or mental element of crime exists in a spectrum of strictness. Strict liability is only one of many points in this spectrum. With this in mind, this articles examines some recent pronouncements on the reason for strict liability. It also discusses recent legislative attitudes towards strict liability and judicial views on the effect of presumptions of knowledge on the mental element of crime. Finally, a reconciliation between the contrasting approaches of the Penal Code and the Common Law is attempted, with the result that the courts are given maximum freedom to impose the appropriate mens rea where the Legislature has chosen not to specify what it is to be.
