SINGAPORE - A driver who had been stopped for suspected traffic violations allegedly drove off dragging a Traffic Police (TP) officer for some distance, said the police on Saturday (March 27).

The man, 31, was arrested for committing a rash act causing grievous hurt, and traffic and drug-related offences, said the police in a statement.
He will be charged in court on Monday.

The police said the TP officer had stopped the driver for suspected traffic violations along the Central Expressway towards Ayer Rajah Expressway, before the Balestier Road exit at about 7.30am on Saturday.

During the checks, the driver allegedly drove off suddenly and dragged the officer along with the moving vehicle over a distance, said the police.

The officer suffered multiple injuries and was taken to hospital. His condition is stable.

The car was later found abandoned along Towner Road, and the man was arrested at 1.10pm.

Police investigations are ongoing.

Police advised road users to comply with traffic rules and regulations, and abide by the directions of its officers during enforcement checks.

It added: "The police have zero tolerance towards such acts of violence against public servants who are carrying out their duties and will not hesitate to take action against those who blatantly disregard the law."

Anyone convicted of a rash act causing grievous hurt under the Penal Code can be jailed for up to four years, fined up to $10,000, or both.

This was not the first time a police officer had been involved in such an incident.

Last year, a Maserati driver whose car dragged a police officer for more than 100m along Bedok Reservoir Road in 2017 was sentenced to four years and seven months' jail with a lifetime driving ban.

The policeman had been dragged when his uniform got caught in the driver-side door of the car. The driver had fled the scene after being stopped for driving without a seat belt.

SINGAPORE - A Maserati driver whose car dragged a police officer for more than 100m along Bedok Reservoir Road in 2017 was sentenced on Tuesday (July 28) to four years and seven months' jail with a lifetime driving ban.

District Judge Ng Peng Hong, who said that Lee Cheng Yan's offences "warranted a retributive and deterrent sentence", also ordered him to pay a fine of $3,700.

In December last year after a five-day trial, the judge found Lee, now 36, guilty of voluntarily causing grievous hurt to the policeman, Staff Sergeant Khairulanwar Abd Kahar, 26.

The policeman had stopped Lee on Nov 17, 2017 for driving without a seat belt. He approached the car to speak to the driver. Lee, who was under a driving ban at the time, instead fled the scene in his white Maserati.

Staff Sgt Khairulanwar was dragged along the road when his uniform got caught in the driver-side door of the car. When he fell onto the road, Lee sped off without rendering help.

Staff Sgt Khairulanwar was treated for pain over his right knee, neck and lower back in hospital. He was later given more than 20 days of medical leave.

Last December, Judge Ng had also found Lee guilty of nine other charges, including failing to stop after the accident and obstruction of justice.

The Singaporean has 59 other pending charges related to matters including unlawful gambling activities. These will be dealt with at a later date.

Before the sentencing, Deputy Public Prosecutor Senthilkumaran Sabapathy had urged Judge Ng to sentence Lee to four years and nine months' jail with a lifetime driving ban.

The DPP added that Staff Sgt Khairulanwar had suffered injuries that had a lasting impact and had lower back pain when carrying heavy items.

DPP Senthilkumaran also said that Lee, who committed a "brazen offence", had dragged the policeman along the road for a "considerable distance."

The prosecutor said: "(It was) fortuitous that the victim did not suffer more serious injuries."

Defence lawyer S. Balamurugan, however, pleaded for a sentence of not more than two years' jail, with a "high fine" and an "appropriate but not excessive" period of driving disqualification.

The lawyer also told Judge Ng that Lee has "adjustment disorder with anxious and depressed mood".

Mr Balamurugan said: "The accused also suffers from insomnia, and as a result, relies heavily on alcohol and sleeping pills to sleep even though (they) may be harmful to his health."

During the trial, the court had earlier heard that Lee, who owned the Maserati, drove the car on Nov 17, 2017, despite being disqualified owing to earlier traffic offences.

He also did not have the mandatory third-party risk insurance for the vehicle at the time of the incident.

Staff Sgt Khairulanwar had stopped Lee's white Maserati in Bedok Reservoir Road at about 9.20pm as Lee was not using his seat belt.

The policeman parked his motorcycle in front of the Maserati before dismounting. He then approached the car to speak to Lee, who wound down his window.

DPP Timotheus Koh had earlier said Lee "fled the scene by suddenly reversing the Maserati, before accelerating quickly forward while the victim was standing next to the driver-seat door".

Lee drove at between 79kmh and 84kmh, dragging Staff Sgt Khairulanwar for more than 100m before he fell onto the road. The Maserati then sped off, the court heard.
DPP Koh had said that after the accident, Lee abandoned the Maserati in Willow Avenue near Aljunied Road.

Lee later phoned a friend, marketing executive Jeff Chan, telling him that he had been involved in an "incident" with the Traffic Police.

Mr Chan testified in court last October that he tried to persuade Lee to surrender to the authorities.
He also said that at around 11pm, Lee asked if he could drive him home to Potong Pasir. But when they arrived there, they spotted patrol cars in the area.

Mr Chan said: "He didn't dare go home and asked to go back to my home again."

At Mr Chan's Kallang Bahru flat, Lee asked to borrow a T-shirt and he threw his own white top down a rubbish chute, the court heard.

Police turned up at Mr Chan's home at around 2am on Nov 18, 2017. Officers arrested Lee, who was charged in court later.

Lee, however, testified during the trial that he was not the driver of the Maserati when the accident took place.

He said that about two hours before the accident, he had given the car keys to a man known only as "Kelvin", whom he had known for about five months.

He added that he had lent the Maserati "reluctantly" to Kelvin, whom he did not know "that well".

The court heard that neither Kelvin's surname nor address was given by Lee to the investigation officer handling the case.

DPP Senthilkumaran then questioned the existence of Kelvin and told Lee: "You are obviously lying."

Lee insisted he was telling the truth.

On Tuesday, Mr Balamurugan told the court that Lee intends to appeal against his conviction and sentence.

For causing grievous hurt to a policeman, an offender be jailed for up to 15 years and fined or caned.

SINGAPORE - A police manhunt is underway for two men after a road accident that injured a pedestrian on Friday night (Feb 12).

A 32-year-old woman, who was with them, has already been arrested, for drug-related offences.

On Saturday (Feb 13), the police told The Straits Times that Traffic Police officers had spotted a vehicle speeding along the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) towards Changi Airport, before the Toa Payoh exit at about 11.55pm on Friday night.

The Traffic Police signalled for the 35-year-old driver to stop.

But he allegedly sped off towards Lorong 2 Toa Payoh.

The driver allegedly hit a 25-year-old woman who was walking across a pedestrian crossing on Lorong 1 Toa Payoh.

The driver allegedly lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the road divider railings.

He and his two passengers then fled the scene on foot.

But officers managed to arrest the woman passenger there for suspected drug-related offences.

The pedestrian was conscious when taken to the hospital.

In a video posted to the Facebook group "SG Road Vigilante", a man and a woman are seen trying to flee from the crash site with officers chasing them.

The man appeared to have been tackled by a police officer.

The woman, who was wearing a white top, was seen to be running out of the camera frame.

The car, which was on the road divider, was black, and its front was heavily damaged.

The police said they have identified the driver and his 28-year-old male passenger and an operation to arrest them is underway.
Investigations are ongoing.

Driver of Maserati that dragged cop loses appeal, as judge calls his actions 'heinous and dangerous'​

SINGAPORE - The driver of a Maserati that dragged a police officer for more than 100m as he fled had his appeal against his conviction and sentence dismissed by the High Court on Friday (May 28).
Lee Cheng Yan was sentenced by a district court last year to four years and seven months' jail for a slew of offences, including voluntarily causing grievous hurt to a Traffic Police officer. He was also given a $3,700 fine and a lifetime driving ban.
In his appeal on Friday, Lee, 37, who was represented by new lawyers, abandoned his previous claim that someone else was driving the car at the time.
He conceded that he was the driver but argued that he should be convicted of a less serious charge for causing hurt to the officer.
Justice Aedit Abdullah was not persuaded that the conviction was in error or that the sentence was manifestly excessive.
The judge said Lee's conduct was "heinous and dangerous" and he had to be punished severely for his offences.

"A car is not normally a weapon, but in the context of a traffic stop, causing injury by a car or other vehicle is tantamount to the use of a weapon... Using such a vehicle to cause harm should not only attract deterrence but heavy retribution," he said.
Lee was under a driving ban when he was stopped by Staff Sergeant Khairulanwar Abd Kahar in Bedok Reservoir Road on the night of Nov 17, 2017, for not wearing a seat belt.
While the officer was standing next to the driver-seat door, Lee suddenly reversed the car and then accelerated forward.
The officer's uniform got caught in the door and he was dragged by the moving vehicle for 124m before he fell onto the road.

Lee was pursued by a motorcyclist, whose pillion rider recorded the chase. The recording shows Lee running two red lights, overtaking other vehicles without any signal and going against the flow of traffic.
The most serious charge faced by Lee was for voluntarily causing grievous hurt to a public servant, for which he was handed four years' jail.
His lawyer, Mr Jeremy Pereira, argued that he should instead be convicted of causing grievous hurt by a rash act and be sentenced to 12 to 15 months' jail.
Mr Pereira argued that Lee was acting rashly because as he stepped on the accelerator, he was aware of the possibility that the officer could get hurt but was "indifferent".
"He took a chance. He could have been lucky, he could have been unlucky. As it turned out, he was unlucky," said the lawyer.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Timotheus Koh argued that Lee's sentence was appropriate, given the audacious circumstances. He noted that Lee knew the officer was being dragged and heard him shouting, but did not stop.​

"His actions were fully deliberate and displayed a shocking level of callousness," said the prosecutor.
Lee started serving his jail term on March 17 after he was remanded into custody.
That day, 10 more charges were brought against him for traffic offences committed this year while he was under the lifetime driving ban.

Man admits to throwing his faeces at an officer while in police lock-up for theft offences​

By Lydia Lam@LydiaLamCNA
28 May 2021 02:46PM


SINGAPORE: While in police lock-up for theft offences, a 34-year-old man defecated into a paper cup given to him for lunch and threw it at an AETOS officer.
Sulaiman Abdul Majid Maricar pleaded guilty on Friday (May 28) to one charge of using criminal force on a public servant for this action, along with five other charges including theft and housebreaking to commit theft. Several other charges will be considered in sentencing.

The court heard that Sulaiman committed a slew of theft offences in October last year, including stealing phones from a lorry, a motorcycle and cash from a hawker stall.
On the morning of Oct 6, 2020, Sulaiman was walking around car parks in Sembawang looking for items to steal when he saw a lorry parked at a multi-storey car park and managed to open it due to a faulty lock.
He stole three phones, a power bank, three face masks and a cash card. The lorry driver lodged a police report and Sulaiman was arrested, but was soon released pending investigations.
A few days later on Oct 13, 2020, Sulaiman was arrested again for stealing from vehicles. He was placed in a lock-up at Woodlands Police Divisional Headquarters.

The next day, he was handed his lunch, which included a paper cup with a beverage inside. He later defecated into the cup and kept his faeces in it, said the prosecutor.
That evening, a 24-year-old AETOS officer on duty at Woodlands Lock-up made his rounds at the lock-up cells collecting food packets and paper cups.
When he got to Sulaiman, Sulaiman passed the victim his food packet before throwing the cup containing faeces at the victim. The faeces landed on the victim's uniform, over his torso, his pants and his boots.
When the victim realised that the cup had contained faeces, he asked Sulaiman for an explanation, but Sulaiman ignored him.

The victim reported the matter to his superior before going off to clean himself. Sulaiman was released on bail the next day.
About a week later on Oct 20, 2020, Sulaiman met his girlfriend at East Coast Park and stayed there until about midnight. The pair then went to look for a motorcycle to steal so they could have transport.
They found a motorcycle with a helmet on top of it at a Housing Board block in Marine Parade. The owner had inadvertently left his key in the ignition as he was very tired.
Sulaiman and his girlfriend rode the motorbike to Woodlands. At the time, Sulaiman was under a 25-year driving ban that forbade him from having any class of driving licence until 2045.
On Oct 23, 2020, Sulaiman and his girlfriend realised they had run out of cash. They rode the bike around looking for cash cards to steal, before heading to a food centre in Tai Seng.
Sulaiman forced open the roller shutters and passed his girlfriend a pair of tongs to use on anyone that might see him. They forced open a cash register at a drink stall and took S$430 from it.
The police arrested Sulaiman at a hotel at about 1.45am on Oct 24, 2020. He was remanded, while the motorcycle was recovered and returned to its owner.
The judge called for a preventive detention suitability report and adjourned sentencing to June.

If all these offenders had been riding PMDs instead of driving the threat to life and limb would have been a lot lower because PMDs are far safer compared to cars.

Oct 30, 2021

SINGAPORE - The driver of a car who allegedly reversed into a Traffic Police (TP) officer was charged on Saturday (Oct 30) with voluntarily causing hurt to deter a public servant from his duties.
Ang See Seng, 37, is accused of hurting Senior Staff Sergeant Haidil Osman at about 8.55am on Oct 28.
He is alleged to have driven and reversed a car into the TP officer along Geylang East Avenue 1.
The incident was captured on video and went viral on social media.
According to the police, another TP officer was patrolling at Upper Paya Lebar Road when he saw the suspicious car.
He signalled for the driver to stop, but the car sped off, leading to a chase.

Senior Staff Sergeant Haidil had joined his colleague in pursuing the car on motorcycles.
The car stopped briefly at Geylang East Avenue 1, but suddenly reversed against the flow of traffic and into the officer on his motorcycle, before speeding off.
The car was later found abandoned along Geylang East Central, and a 34-year-old passenger of the car was arrested at the scene.
A manhunt led to the arrest of Ang and a 22-year-old man who is alleged to have been the one who rented the car and who was also a passenger during the incident.
According to court documents, Ang had just been released from prison and was serving a remission order when he allegedly committed the recent offence.
He was also charged in April for allegedly driving dangerously at Woodlands Checkpoint on June 9 last year, by recklessly reversing into a gantry barrier and damaging it.
He has been remanded for investigation and is scheduled for another court appearance on Monday (Nov 1).
If convicted of voluntarily causing hurt to deter a public servant from the discharge of his duty, Ang may be jailed for up to seven years, fined or caned.

SINGAPORE - Five police officers were hurt on Sunday (Oct 31) while trying to stop a 19-year-old man from driving off in a stolen car, said the police at a press conference on Monday (Nov 1).
The police said they had received a report of a stolen car on Oct 30 at about 8.30pm.
A 22-year-old man who was providing carpooling services informed the police that his two male passengers had driven off in the vehicle when he left it to buy cigarettes for them.
At 2.15am on Sunday, the car driven by the 19-year-old allegedly collided into an unmarked police car and a parked van, before it sped off.
The officers were not injured, and the man was arrested about six hours later with the help of police cameras. A stun device was recovered from the driver.
Police officers spotted the car at about 9am on Sunday at a carpark in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6, this time driven by the second man, also 19, who was with a male passenger.



When told to step out of the car, he sped off, causing three officers to fall and sustain slight injuries, the police said.
Another unmarked police car chased the stolen vehicle.
As the car was attempting to evade capture, it hit two cars parked along the road and the pursuing police car, injuring two officers inside.

Additional jail term for driver of Maserati that dragged police officer​

SINGAPORE - The driver of a Maserati that had dragged a policeman for more than 100m in 2017 continued to drive while he was out on bail pending his appeal last year. He did so even though he had been banned for life from driving.
Singaporean Lee Cheng Yan, who had been sentenced to four years and seven months' jail, given a lifetime driving ban and fined $3,700 in 2020, unlawfully went behind the wheel multiple times early last year.
He was driving a car on March 12 last year when he was stopped and made to take a breathalyser test. He failed it and sped off. Two policemen chased him on their motorcycles.
Lee later abandoned the vehicle, but officers caught him three days later after an extensive manhunt.
The recalcitrant offender, who is currently serving his earlier jail term, pleaded guilty on Thursday (Jan 27) to 15 charges for offences including dangerous driving and graft.
He was sentenced to one year, nine months and 16 weeks' jail. He was also ordered to pay a $1,000 penalty over his graft charges.
Lee, now 38, will start serving his latest sentence after completing his earlier one.

On Nov 17, 2017, Staff Sergeant Khairulanwar Abd Kahar, then 26, stopped Lee, who was in a white Maserati, for driving without a seat belt. The police officer then approached the car to speak to Lee.
But Lee, who was under a driving ban at the time, fled the scene in his car.
Staff Sgt Khairulanwar was dragged along Bedok Reservoir Road when his uniform got caught in the driver-side door of the car. When he fell onto the road, Lee sped off without rendering help.


In December 2019, District Judge Ng Peng Hong convicted Lee of multiple charges, including failing to stop after the accident and obstruction of justice.
Lee was sentenced in July 2020 to four years and seven months' jail with a lifetime driving ban and a fine of $3,700.
Lee, who decided to appeal against this conviction and sentence, was released on bail that year. One of his friends later rented a BMW car, which Lee drove despite the driving ban.
At around 4am on March 12 last year, Lee was unlawfully driving the car along Macpherson Road when Staff Sergeant Muhammad Masri Mohd Yusof stopped him at a roadblock. Lee was given a breathalyser test, which he failed.
Deputy Public Prosecutors Timotheus Koh, Magdalene Huang and Senthilkumaran Sabapathy stated in court documents: "Staff Sgt Masri hence signalled for the barricade of the roadblock to be closed and requested for the accused's personal details.


"The accused failed to comply with Staff Sgt Masri's instructions. Instead, he suddenly drove off and manoeuvred the car through the barricade and sped off from the roadblock."
Two other police officers on motorcycles chased after Lee, who drove at around 140kmh and beat red light signals in his bid to get away.
On Thursday, the DPPs told District Judge Kamala Ponnampalam: "The pursuit lasted for about 2.4km before the pursuing officers lost sight of the car after it made an abrupt left turn into Tai Seng Avenue. The accused then abandoned the car at the Tai Seng Industrial Estate carpark and fled from the scene, as captured by CCTV footage."
Lee was caught on March 15 last year.
The High Court dismissed his appeal against his earlier conviction and sentence two months later.
Lee also committed graft in an unrelated incident.
The court heard that a man identified as Philbert Lim Zong Xian, 34, whom Lee knew, had needed the addresses of various people as he wanted to recover monies they purportedly owed.
The prosecutors said: "Some time in 2017, the accused told Lim that he had contacts who could find out the addresses of phone line subscribers using their phone numbers, and said that he could help Lim retrieve such information for a fee of $350 per number."
According to court documents, Lim gave three phone numbers to Lee and handed him $1,000. Lee later gave one of the phone numbers to his contact, Kelvin Foo Cheek Ann, who was then working at a Singtel shop.
Foo used his access rights to the company's system to retrieve the subscriber's address. He handed the information to Lee, who then passed it on to Lim.
Lim's case is pending, while Foo, then 32, was sentenced to 18 weeks' jail in January last year.

Man almost hits police officer with car after he is stopped for cheating case​

Nadine Chua

Feb 10, 2022

SINGAPORE - A man almost hit a police officer with his car when he was stopped for his suspected involvement in a case of cheating.
The man had earlier met another man at Sengkang Square on Tuesday (Feb 8) after responding to the latter's post online to sell his luxury watch for $35,000.
After inspecting the watch, the man decided not to proceed with the purchase and allegedly returned a similar watch to the victim, said the police.
It was only after returning home that the victim, 28, realised the man had returned a different watch, which had a different serial number and was believed to be a counterfeit.
The police received the report of the alleged cheating case at 4.40pm that day.
An operation involving officers from the Ang Mo Kio Police Division, Police Operations Command Centre and Police Intelligence Department was immediately mounted to trace the suspect, said the police in a statement on Thursday.
Through investigations, the identity of the 26-year-old suspect was established.

On Wednesday, he was spotted in a car in the vicinity of Yishun Ring Road by officers from Ang Mo Kio Police Division.
When the officers engaged the suspect in an open carpark and instructed him to step out of the car, he allegedly ignored their instructions and attempted to hit an officer with his car before speeding away, said the police.
The officer managed to move away to avoid being knocked down by the car, the police added.
Through extensive ground inquiries, the suspect was arrested after being spotted in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3 later that day.
He will be charged in court on Friday with the offence of cheating. If convicted, he can be jailed for up to 10 years and fined.
The suspect is also being investigated for the offences of rash act and driving under disqualification.
If convicted of a rash act, he can be jailed for up to six months, fined up to $2,500, or both.
If convicted of driving under disqualification, he can be jailed for up to three years, fined up to $10,000, or both.

Man jailed for driving off during police check, dragging officer into middle of CTE​

08 Mar 2022

SINGAPORE: A man drove off in the middle of a Traffic Police check while an officer held onto his steering wheel during the morning rush hour last year.
The officer was dragged for a distance of 75m by the moving car. He was eventually hurled into the middle of the Central Expressway (CTE), where he rolled to a stop in front of three lanes of traffic.
Heng Yong Qin, 32, was sentenced on Tuesday (Mar 8) to a total of six years and 36 days' jail and three strokes of the cane after pleading guilty to voluntarily causing hurt to deter a public servant from his duty.
He was given an additional 44 days' jail as he committed offences while under a remission order.
Heng also pleaded guilty to two other charges of breaching his curfew under his remission order in September and October 2020, and consuming methamphetamine sometime around March 2021.
The victim was a senior staff sergeant with the Singapore Police Force.
On the morning of the incident on on Mar 27, 2021, he was driving along the CTE towards Ayer Rajah Expressway at around 7.30am when he saw Heng driving his car without a seatbelt.
He signalled to Heng to pull over at the road shoulder, which Heng did. The officer then parked his motorcycle behind the car.
The officer signalled to Heng to exit his car, but Heng ignored him and stayed in the vehicle. Sensing that something was amiss, the officer walked over to the window on the driver's side and asked Heng why he was not wearing a seatbelt.
Heng did not answer the question and handed over his driver's licence. The officer screened the licence and found that Heng was wanted by the Central Narcotics Bureau for failing to report for his urine test.
The officer asked Heng to exit his vehicle, open his car boot and lean against the boot to remain within sight. Heng did as he was told. But when he spotted another police vehicle approaching, he came nervous that he would be arrested.
Heng decided to flee the scene and immediately dashed towards the driver's seat, according to court documents. The officer tried to grab his arm but he managed to break free, enter the car and start the ignition.
Knowing that Heng was intending to flee the scene, the officer held onto the victim's arm with his left hand and the car's steering wheel with his right hand.
Heng hit the officer's left arm to break free. He then stepped on the accelerator pedal and drove off, despite knowing that the officer was still holding onto his steering wheel.
The officer was dragged along with the car until he lost his balance and fell onto the road, where he remained lying on the ground, unable to get up.
In court, the prosecution played video footage of the incident that showed the officer being flung into the middle of the CTE, which was then busy with many vehicles including lorries.
The officer's colleague later rode his motorcycle and parked it between the victim and oncoming traffic. There was a build-up of traffic as vehicles tried to avoid the victim.
The victim lay on the ground for about 18 minutes before he was taken to the hospital. He sustained injuries to his neck and back, and received 10 days of hospitalisation leave.
According to court documents, after Heng saw the officer fall onto the road, he stepped harder on his accelerator and sped off.
To escape detection, he parked outside a primary school and walked towards Whampoa, where he flagged a taxi to his cousin's house. He was arrested later that day.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Phoebe Tan sought a jail term of between six years and 36 days, and six years, nine months and 74 days, with three strokes of the cane.
She said it was "purely fortuitous" that no vehicles collided into the victim when he was lying on the road.
She also argued that Heng's plea of guilt should not be given significant weight for mitigation as there was "overwhelming" evidence against him in the form of the video footage.
Defence lawyer Wee Hong Shern asked for not more than five years and 10 months' jail. He said that Heng's offence did not involve a great degree of sophistication or planning, but was "reactionary".
Heng's knowledge that he faced a jail sentence for breaching his remission order "launched him into a state of panic and desperation", said Mr Wee.

SINGAPORE - When he was caught by an auxiliary police officer for leaving Singapore General Hospital (SGH) via an unauthorised exit, Yeo Yong Hao verbally abused the officer and later hit him with his car twice.
The officer suffered bruises on his left leg and was given three days' sick leave as a result.
On Monday (Aug 15), Yeo, 31, was sentenced to nine weeks' jail and banned from driving for a year and two months after his release from prison.
He had pleaded guilty to one count each of committing a rash act that endangers the personal safety of others and using abusive words towards a public servant.
The court heard that Yeo had gone to SGH in April last year to pick up his girlfriend's mother.
He wanted to leave the hospital via a glass door that was not accessible to the public and could be opened only by staff.
When auxiliary police officer Syahmi Rusydi Sobirin, 25, opened the door with his staff pass, Yeo followed him.

Mr Syahmi told Yeo to use another exit but was ignored. Yeo then made derogatory comments about the officer and said he was just a Certis Cisco officer and not a police officer.
Mr Syahmi followed Yeo to the carpark and stood in front of his car to stop him from leaving, but Yeo drove forward and hit the officer's leg.
This happened again after Yeo confronted the officer and sounded his car horn continually.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Emily Zhao said Yeo had used abusive and racially charged language at the officer, and had injured him twice.
"The degree of rashness in this case is very high and borders on being intentional. The accused clearly saw the officer standing in front of the car and knew the officer was telling him to stop," she said.
For committing a rash act, Yeo could have been jailed for up to six months and fined up to $2,500.
The offence of using abusive words towards a public servant carries a maximum punishment of a $5,000 fine and a jail term of up to a year.

SINGAPORE - A man who led police on a high-speed chase through Toa Payoh was on Wednesday sentenced to more than nine years' jail for drug, traffic and other offences.
A female pedestrian was hit by the car Vaswani Richard Prakash drove in the incident on Feb 12, 2021.
She suffered multiple injuries, including a fracture to her left ankle.
Vaswani, 36, had on Sept 14 pleaded guilty to a range of offences including drug abuse, causing grievous hurt while driving in a dangerous manner and driving while under disqualification.
The court heard that at the time of the high-speed chase, Vaswani was serving a remission order, which was in force until Aug 18, 2021.
This was after his release from jail for an undisclosed offence on Oct 23, 2019.
As part of the remission order, he was supposed to keep himself out of trouble.

Instead he was arrested on June 8, 2020, after a woman he was with in a car tried to avoid a police roadblock.
The court heard that Vaswani was a passenger in the car.
The woman, who was driving the car, did not have a driving licence.

After spotting the roadblock at a slip road into Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5, the woman reversed the car.
It struck a kerb and police arrested her soon after. Court documents did not disclose the outcome of her case.
Vaswani was uncooperative and aggressive, and had to be arrested.

He submitted his urine samples at a police station and they were found to contain traces of methamphetamine.
The high-speed chase happened while he was out on bail after this incident.
Police had noticed a black Volkswagen speeding along the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) at 11.55pm. Vaswani was at the wheels.
When he noticed the police car following him, he accelerated to around 120kmh.
He was driving without a licence and had illicit drugs inside the vehicle.
With him were two passengers - Sharifah Mohamed Wasil, 33, and Muhammad Haikal Ahdam Shah, 27.
Haikal was catching a lift, to return to a halfway house where he stayed.
In a video recording of the chase, which was played in court, the Volkswagen can be seen weaving through traffic along the PIE and cutting across multiple lanes at high speeds.
The car eventually turned into Toa Payoh, driving through nine red lights within three minutes as it darted through traffic.
The police called for reinforcements as the chase continued.
At a pedestrian crossing near Block 111 Lorong 1 Toa Payoh, Vaswani ran another red light, but the car struck the pedestrian.
He continued driving, but soon lost control of the vehicle before it collided with a road divider.

Vaswani and his passengers then fled in different directions on foot. Sharifah was arrested, while the other two managed to get away.
Methamphetamine and other drugs were also seized from the vehicle.
Vaswani was arrested after a three-day manhunt, while Haikal was found after he showed up at a hospital to seek treatment for a leg injury.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Goh Qi Shuen told the court that Vaswani had taken the car from a friend without permission.
On Wednesday, Vaswani was sentenced to nine years, six months, 10 weeks and 182 days' jail.
He was fined $3,000, ordered to receive 12 strokes of the cane and disqualified from obtaining all classes of driving licences for eight years from his date of release.
Vaswani also has to spend another 228 days behind bars, which is half of his remaining remission period of 456 days.

SINGAPORE - The driver of a Maserati that dragged a police officer for 100m in 2017, and who repeatedly drove while banned from driving, pleaded with a High Court judge on Wednesday to reduce his sentence totalling more than six years.
Lee Cheng Yan, 38, repeatedly said he was remorseful for what he had done, and was sorry for “not realising the consequences when I had freedom outside”.
He asked for leniency “so that I can reunite with my two daughters earlier”.
Lee also asked for his car not to be forfeited, saying he wished to use the sales proceeds to provide for his daughters, who are in Japan.
Justice Aedit Abdullah rejected Lee’s appeal and chided him for not learning his lesson.
“You don’t seem to understand the seriousness of what you have done,” said the judge.
“You should be thankful the sentences are not enhanced,” he added. “You should be spending your time in prison to reflect, and not to reduce your sentences.”

A separate hearing regarding the forfeiture of the vehicle has been scheduled for Jan 25 in the State Courts.
Under the Road Traffic Act, in cases of repeat offenders convicted of driving while under disqualification, the court has to order the forfeiture of the vehicle when the prosecution applies for such an order.
Lee, who faced 79 charges, was sentenced in two sets of proceedings.

In July 2020, he was sentenced to four years and seven months’ jail and a $3,700 fine on 10 charges, including voluntarily causing grievous hurt to a Traffic Police officer. He was also given a lifetime driving ban.
He was under a driving ban on Nov 17, 2017, when he was stopped by the officer in Bedok Reservoir Road for not wearing a seat belt.
While the officer was standing next to the driver’s door, Lee suddenly reversed the car and then accelerated forward.

The officer’s uniform got caught in the door and he was dragged by the moving vehicle for 124m before falling onto the road.
While Lee was on bail pending his appeal against his conviction and sentence, he repeatedly drove a BMW rented by one of his friends.
He was handed more charges for traffic offences. In one incident on March 12, 2021, he drove through a police roadblock, drove dangerously by speeding at 140kmh and ran two red lights.
In January 2022, he was sentenced to a further jail term of one year, nine months and 16 weeks.
The 15 charges also included offences for corruption and remote gambling. Another 54 charges were taken into consideration.
The second sentence was ordered to start after Lee completes serving his first sentence.
The time for him to file an appeal has elapsed, but he filed a motion in a bid to lower his overall sentence, arguing that the sentences for some of his charges should run concurrently instead of consecutively.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Timotheus Koh argued that the second sentence involved offences that were distinct from those in the 2017 case that led to the first sentence.
He added that Lee had committed similar offences while on bail, and that Lee’s dangerous driving was similar to his conduct that resulted in the first sentence.
Justice Abdullah said he saw no reason to disturb the sentences imposed, which he said were “not high at all”.

Company CEO who assaulted policeman in Sentosa Cove gets 10 weeks’ jail​

SINGAPORE – The chief executive of an e-commerce services firm was at a friend’s home in Sentosa Cove when he assaulted a policeman who had turned up following complaints about noise at the gathering.
South Korean Kim Sun Ho, 40, who is also a director and shareholder at Makers Farm, was jailed for 10 weeks on Friday after he pleaded guilty to voluntarily causing hurt to a public servant.
Shortly before committing the offence in the wee hours of Feb 20, he had been consuming alcohol at the gathering in Ocean Drive.
Noise made by the guests prompted members of the public to alert a Sentosa Cove security officer, who turned up to look into the matter.
The officer noticed that Kim was intoxicated, and behaving in an uncooperative and rowdy manner.
The officer called the police, and Special Constabulary Sergeant (1) Harith Syahmi Safarudin and his colleagues arrived at the scene at around 3.15am.
Deputy Public Prosecutor R. Arvindren said: “During the check, the accused came out of a bedroom to look for one of his female companions.

“The accused stumbled into the… patio, where his female companions were, and nearly fell into (a) swimming pool in his intoxicated state. The victim pulled the accused’s arm to prevent him from falling into the swimming pool.”
Kim then turned around, told Special Constabulary Sgt (1) Harith to “shut up”, and punched the 21-year-old’s left cheek.
The DPP added that Kim tried to punch the victim’s face again but was immediately restrained by two other police officers.
He was arrested, and during investigations admitted that he drank multiple glasses of whiskey and champagne before the assault.
Special Constabulary Sgt (1) Harith, who suffered a bruise on his left cheek, went to Alexandra Hospital and was given two days of medical leave.
Kim was represented by lawyers Adrian Wee, Lynette Chang and Takehiro Miyoshi.
In his mitigation plea, Mr Wee asked for Kim to be given not more than seven weeks’ jail, stressing that the incident involved his client’s first brush with the law in Singapore.


Mr Wee, who is from Characterist law firm, added: “Shortly after the incident took place, our client made efforts to seek the victim out in an attempt to apologise to him, but could not locate the victim.
“As such, our client has personally expressed his sincere apologies in a letter which has been presented to the prosecution to be placed before the victim.”
For assaulting a public servant, an offender can be jailed for up to seven years, fined, caned or receive any combination of such punishments.
