An unemployed man was jailed for nine months on Thursday for slashing his wife and hitting her with a table fan and a flask.

S I George Raj, 42, was fined a total of $2,000 for criminal trespass and breaching a personal protection order granted to his wife Ms Shivani Priyadarshini Dinesh Kumar Vellayappan, 32.

He admitted to four of six charges before District Judge Lim Tse Haw who said this was a particularly bad case of spousal abuse.

The court heard that Ms Shivani moved back to her maiden home in Yishun Ring Road as their marriage had broken down. She was granted a PPO in October 2011 due to instances of family violence against by her husband.
