Lets not forget the supposed SQ Captain being marched from the hotel in London by the Met Police for supposedly landing with only a few tonnes of fuel - way below the minimum mandatory Fixed Reserve requirements.

Thats a new one on me, since when do the police come and haul you off for landing with less then min fuel in your tanks?

There have been a number of cases at Heathrow where a/c declare an emergency because they have less then min fuel in tanks, Concord springs to mind for one.

Are you telling me that the police go to the Cpts home and haul him off to police station for a please explain?

Sounds like an urban myth to me.
I am not defending SQ, but never let the facts get in the way of a good story huh?
