According to the “Today” report, the court revealed that the defendant’s ex-wife was living alone “out of pity” when the case happened. Sometimes the defendant was allowed to stay at home. When he asked him to pick up things on October 18 last year, he reported against her. The case had a dispute with her. The court documents did not mention why the ex-wife reported the crime.

The defendant also accused the ex-wife of stealing his money at the time. Although the ex-wife denied the accusation, he still insisted that she hand over 600 SGD. But she was about to go to work at the time and would not care about him.

When they tried to persuade him to return to the room, he suddenly showed a pair of scissors and pointed at one of them, threatening to hurt him. Warn them not to approach or they will be beaten.
