SINGAPORE — He had already been nabbed for grievously assaulting two men, one of whom suffered a skull fracture and mild brain injury, when he slashed a former business associate with a knife.
The 29-year-old Singaporean pleaded guilty to voluntarily causing hurt, causing hurt with a dangerous weapon and causing grievous hurt. Achmad then pushed the second victim and punched his eye area, causing the other man’s spectacle lens to break and cut his face. The first victim's girlfriend called the police and both victims were then taken to Singapore General Hospital.
When he was released on bail a second time, he ambushed a former business associate with whom he had fallen out over financial disputes. The victim then fled. Achmad chased him for a while but gave up when the other man ran across Kim Seng Road.
