A magistrates' court judgment published on January 28 reveals that Mr Kawshigan filed two lawsuits against Ms Tan after their friendship broke down when she told him that she only saw him as a friend, Channel News Asia reports.

He earlier sued Ms Tan for 22,000 Singapore dollars (roughly £13,700) claiming she 'breached an agreement' to better their relationship, but this was cancelled by the magistrates' court, which called it an abuse of process.

Mr Kawshigan is now suing Ms Tan for 3 million Singapore dollars (£1.9m) in the Singapore High Court for a variety of damages he claims she caused him, including trauma he says he suffered when she told him she only saw him as a friend.

Closer to home, Legit.ng previously reported that an Enugu court has reportedly awarded N150,000 in damages against a lady after she collected N3,000 to visit a man but failed to show up.

A Nigerian lawyer @Egi_nupe_ who shared the story on Twitter said that the lady switched off her phone after collecting the money and this infuriated the man. The displeased man approached the Enugu law court and won.

In the judgment, the magistrate held that the lady's act was deceitful. The sum awarded was intended to serve as a deterrent to other ladies with similar deceitful behaviours or plans.
