SINGAPORE – Five months after being released from prison, a man assaulted his two teenage children, including his daughter, whom he thought was smoking a Kpod.
He had choked both 17-year-olds until they had difficulty breathing.
He moved out of his flat after his family members applied for emergency orders against acts of violence towards them.
He then slept at random HDB void decks, but breached the emergency orders when he returned to the unit and created a ruckus outside.
On Oct 27, the 57-year-old man was sentenced to 14 weeks’ jail and a fine of $1,500.
He must spend an additional 17 days behind bars after breaching a remission order.
He had pleaded guilty to two counts of assault and one count each of harassment and breaching an emergency order – an offence under the Women’s Charter.
Four other charges were considered during sentencing.
He cannot be named as the case involved the Women’s Charter, and naming him could identify his children.
Court documents stated that after spending time behind bars for an undisclosed offence, the man was released and was placed on a remission order.
He had to stay out of trouble between Aug 23, 2025, and Feb 19, 2026.
Even though he was divorced from his wife, he still lived with her and their two children.
