DETHRONED beauty queen Ris Low has been barred from shopping alone and must be accompanied by a family member at all times when she is out.
WHO IS RIS?
* Ris Low, 19, started making the rounds as a beauty pageant hopeful on the Internet when a Razor TV video was posted on July 8 prior to her winning Miss Singapore World on July 31.
* The newspapers picked up the story about a month later on how she was being slammed by netizens for her poor spoken English and coinage of the word 'boomz'.
These are among the stricter conditions imposed by a District Judge on Tuesday when she turned up in court for a review of her 24 months supervised probation.
District Judge May Mesenas also wants her to continue her psychiatric treatment and counselling for her bipolar disorder, and take specific instructions from her psychiatrist.
'Whatever he advises you, whatever symptoms you have, you need to tell your doctor. Don't keep it to yourself. He needs to know everything so that he could give you the best treatment possible... so that you can get better,' the judge told Ms Low, who was dressed in a lime green long-sleeve hooded jacket and dark blue jeans.
The controversial ex-beauty queen who decided to give up her crown last week, said she would comply with the additional conditions.
She was given a chance and put on probation in May after she admitted to two charges each of cheating and cheating by impersonation, and one of misappropriation.
