A NIGHT at the Ginza karaoke pub turned violent after a man invited a woman at another table to join him and go to another club. A cat fight broke out, and on Friday, Ng Mei Fang, 28, became the first of the four women involved to plead guilty to disturbing the peace. The finance officer, was fined $1,000.

A district court heard that the divorcee was at the pub at Sembawang Road at 12.30am on Nov 11 last year with her cousin Ong Poh Eng, 30, and friend Heng Ai Hoon, 30, both of whom are housewives. Her boyfriend had left earlier.

One of the two men seated at another table with Doreen Yap Xiao Ping, 26, a spa worker, invited Ong to follow them to another pub. She declined the offer but later, when Yap was outside the pub smoking, a quarrel broke out between her and Heng.

Once inside, the dispute turned ugly and all four women started kicking and punching each other.

Yap summoned the police. Taken to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, doctors found bruises and scratch marks on all the women. As the pub was a public place, they were charged with disturbing the peace by committing affray. The other women will be dealt with later this month.

A WOMAN who had claimed that she was set upon by a group of women wielding bottles and glasses in a pub was fined $1,000 on Thursday.

Doreen Yap Xiao Ping, 26, who works in a spa, admitted to disturbing the public peace when she fought with three women at Ginza Pub along Sembawang Road on Nov 11 2010.

A court heard that Yap - who was with two male friends - sat next to a table at the pub occupied by Heng Ai Hoon, 30, Ng Mei Fang, 28, and Ong Poh Eng, 30, and another woman. One of Yap's friends had asked Ong if she would like to follow them to another pub, but she declined.

A while later, Yap went out for a smoke when Heng approached her and wanted to talk to her about what had happened earlier. They had a dispute. Both returned to the pub after that.

Another dispute broke out in the pub where punches and kicks were exchanged between Yap and the three women.

Yap's lawyer, Mr Adrian Wee, said his client had a permanent 9cm-long scar on her forearm. He said her employment prospects had been severely and adversely affected by her injuries and her employer had told her the negative publicity might result in her losing her job.

Ng has been dealt with while the cases of Heng and Ong will be mentioned on May 9.
