Police investigating man for allegedly assaulting security officer at Chijmes​

SINGAPORE - The police are investigating a 32-year-old man for allegedly assaulting a security officer at Chijmes.
In response to queries from The Straits Times, the police said they were alerted to the incident at 30 Victoria Street at about 3.15am on Oct 5. The man is being investigated for the offence of voluntarily causing hurt.
A 61-year-old man was conscious when taken to the hospital, police added.
The Union of Security Employees (USE) said on Facebook that the man, its union member Abdul Talib A. Mohamed, was hospitalised until Oct 6.
Mr Abdul Talib was on patrol at Chijmes when he noticed a commotion at about 2.15am on Oct 5. A female employee from one of the restaurants had called out to him for help.
The union said: “As brother Abdul Talib hurried over, the alleged assailant approached him instead and punched his head without provocation.”
The security officer fell backwards and blacked out, the union added.
USE said it is working with Hawkeye Security Solutions, a unionised company and Mr Abdul Talib’s employer, to provide support for all his medical expenses. It has also given vouchers and supplements to Mr Abdul Talib.
Security officers in Singapore execute their duties as provided for under the Private Security Industry Act (PSIA), USE said, adding that the Act was enhanced in May 2022 to provide greater protection for security officers.
In response to a parliamentary question, Minister for Home Affairs K. Shanmugam said in May that on average, there were about 23 abuse or harassment cases against security officers reported each month in the first three months of 2023.
This is higher than the average of 13 reported cases per month between 2018 and 2021, before the PSIA was amended, he added.
The union urged those with information about cases of abuse against security officers to report them via the MyUSE app or e-mail [email protected]

I bet the assailant is chinese. Chinese cannot hit malays, it's considered a racial attack which is why they're making a big deal of this incident.

No one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE is allowed to hit another, whatever the ethnic or religious group that both victim & aggressor belongs to. THIS is Singapore, a RULE OF LAW Civilization & a MULTI - CULTURAL society, that had been hard won with sacrifices by our Founding & Forefathers who gave us our today.

Let us NOT forget our sacred National Pledge.

ANYONE who promotes racism or religious supremacy WILL BE SEVERELY dealt with thru our Rule of Law. We have no wish to return back to the dark days of the 60s....

There is NO NEED for vengeance. An eye for an eye WILL leave everyone blind or dead.

We Humanity only NEED JUSTICE, & that can be found here in our Multi Cultural nation. Each regardless of race or religion WILL be given the opportunity for legal representation & in the case of those who have financial issues, the State will provide free legal assistance, & both victim & aggressor will be given a fair trial under the law.

Most security guards are not fit. If they are., they attacker would be in hospital, not the guard.

Singapore security guards should have an age cap. Not every job is suitable for elderly folks.

It's just for show. Like a Scarecrow. The security companies should provide a body cam to deter attackers to all guards.

61 years old is still middle aged. You can run marathon at that age. It's just guards are not trained to be fit.

Grassroots leaders have given brother Abdul some bird's nest drinks and chicken essence. Brother Abdul will be back on his feet in no time.

Most security guards have an IQ of less than 70, I guess.

Security Guard profession is an HONEST job that brings food to the table for loved ones, a job that both young & old can undertake.

Their role is CLEARLY defined - to guard the premise under his care, to ADVISE trespassers politely always upon the RULES should it be contravened.

Ultimately, there may be hostilities, even by those whom have legal rights to the premise, & the general rule for Security Guards is to STEP BACK, call for assistance or Managers, & at worse if none available, to call 999 for National enforcement officers - SPF - for assistance. If not possible, REST ASSURED, there WILL BE JUSTICE served.

He MUST NEVER EVER attempt to resolve the hostile situation by himself, young or old. It goes the same to every Human that walks upon the streets of Singapore & faces hostile situation. Singapore is a RULE OF LAW Nation, not a lawless land ruled by gangsters or those whom presumed that MIGHT is power. Dial 999 - SPF is a State Organization funded by Hardworking Singaporean taxpayers the runs 24/7 by courageous officers to PROTECT ANY innocent Human that walk the streets of Singapore
