Group of Men Ambushed & Slashed a Man in Toa Payoh Over a Woman; Suspects Still at Large

Another day, another attack because of a woman.

Previously, it was the Chinatown Condo Fight with Parangs which allegedly happened over a girl.

And now, another knife attack happened, this time at Toa Payoh.

20-Year-Old Man Went Out To Get Some Drinks & Came Back Injured

On 27 May, the victim told his family that he was going out to get some drinks.

15 minutes later, he hurriedly knocked on the door, asking to be let in.

His father opened the door only to see his son bleeding profusely from slash wounds.

Initially, he had refused to say what happened but relented after continuous questioning.

He Actually Went To Meet With Girlfriend’s Ex-Lover

It turns out that going out to get some drinks was merely an excuse.

He had actually met up with his girlfriend’s ex-lover to settle a dispute.

However, instead of a one-to-one talk, it became an ambush where a group of four to five men attacked him.

Residents in the area said they heard shouting from the covered walkway.

A 41-year-old resident told Wanbao that the victim had escaped to the second-floor lift lobby “before collapsing from exhaustion”.

It was reported that the attack had left a 20 to 30-metre blood trail along the void deck at Blk 106, Lorong 1 Toa Payoh and at the second level staircase landing.

The victim was taken conscious to Tan Tock Seng Hospital.

He was slashed on the forehead and suffered a deep cut on his left arm. The cut was so deep the wound was exposed to the bone and required surgery.

Investigations Are Ongoing

The father of the victim pointed to his son’s ex-girlfriend as a possible suspect. He was just released from prison, the father claims.

The police revealed in their preliminary investigations that the victim knew one of his attackers.

Currently, investigations are ongoing and the suspects of the case are still not arrested yet.

Another Knife Fight On 25 May

11 teenagers were accused of getting together during the CB period for a settlement talk on 25 May 2020.

They then got into a knife fight after that.

The nature of the incident, however, was not specified.

Some of the teenagers have since been remanded for investigations. All of them, however, will be required to return to court next month.

For participating in an unlawful assembly while equipped with a lethal weapon, they’re liable to face a maximum of five years’ jail, a fine, caning, or any combination.

For breaching a COVID-19 regulation, they can be jailed for up to six months, fined up to S$10,000, or both.
