Singapore Man Faces Charges After Alleged Stabbing at Bedok
On Wednesday, June 29, a 46‑year‑old Singaporean will take a turn to the judicial system—charged with voluntarily causing hurt by a dangerous weapon—after a sudden stabbing incident last Friday.
How the Incident Brought In the Police
- Victim’s wife called for help the day after the alleged attack, reporting her husband had come home with two stab wounds.
- She revealed that the man felt dizzy the following day, hinting that the injuries were serious.
- The police were immediately dispatched to Block 742, Bedok Reservoir Road to investigate.
Swift Capture and Investigation
By Monday, authorities had successfully identified the suspect through CCTV footage and other investigative techniques. The suspect was promptly arrested.
During the arrest, officers discovered the suspect was in possession of substances believed to be controlled drugs—a possible future charge that the Police are slated to investigate.
The Potential Consequences
