ONE of two cyclists knocked down in Clementi on Sunday night by a suspected drink-driver died in hospital on Wednesday from head injuries.

Freelance writer Benjamin Mok Chee Kong, 35, never regained consciousness after the accident.

The 62-year-old suspect, a general practitioner, could be facing more trouble as he is under investigation for a hit-and-run offence.

The Straits Times understands that he had left the scene after the accident, and returned later. He was arrested and is currently out on bail.

Mr Mok and his friend, Mr Bertram Leong Poh Meng, 22, a chef, had been out on a routine cycling trip on Sunday night.

The two friends were initially with a group of six, but were with just one other friend when cycling along Clementi Road. They were headed towards Upper Bukit Timah Road for supper when the accident happened. Now, Mr Leong is in National University Hospital with head injuries.

Read the full report in Thursday's edition of The Straits Times.

Have to check with His Master's Voice first..... if this was Bo Chap Seow from Blk xxx, Choa Chu Kang xxx, the drivers' name will printed in BOLD TYPEFACE and pictures of his face plastered all over the pages...

This must be some ELITE...members have their privileges!....The good doctor was testing the anesthesia ( wine, beer...martell), on his way to a medical emergency...maybe another Han Guo Piano Tuner...) was the car stolen?:p
