A 76-year-old man in Singapore was jailed for four weeks and fined $1,000 after he pleaded guilty to assault and mischief charges. He had previously been jailed multiple times for similar offenses.
In an unrelated incident, Lee Ah Cheng splashed a mixture of bleach and water at his 66-year-old male friend during a dispute.An elderly recalcitrant offender who felt that the resident of a flat was being irresponsible for creating a mess in a common corridor, used superglue to seal the keyhole of a padlock to the stranger’s unit. In an unrelated incident, Lee Ah Cheng , 76, splashed a mixture of bleach and water at his 66-year-old male friend during a dispute.
Lee was sentenced to four weeks’ jail and a fine of $1,000 on Dec 19 after he pleaded guilty to one count each of assault and committing an act of mischief.Deputy Public Prosecutor Intan Suhaily Abu Bakar said Lee was sent to jail four times between 1972 and 2005 for violent offences, including assault and performing a rash act that endangered others. For the current case, the court heard that he took a bottle containing the diluted bleach, which he had prepared earlier, to meet his friend at a Jurong East market on Oct 2, 2023. At around 10pm, the two men got into a dispute over an undisclosed matter and Lee splashed the liquid at his friend’s face. An altercation broke out and passers-by stepped in to separate the pair. Lee then went home and the police were alerted. An ambulance took the victim to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, where he was referred to the ophthalmology department and diagnosed with a chemical injury. Nine months later, he reoffended by committing an act of mischief involving the padlock. At around 9pm on July 10, 2024, Lee left home and took a bus to Jurong East to meet a friend, whose particulars were not disclosed in court documents. Lee realised he was unsure of his friend’s unit number and decided to walk around the neighbourhood in the hope of bumping into the friend
