SINGAPORE, July 10 — Despite his parents having personal protection orders against him, Tham Quan Hui physically and verbally abused them several times, even choking his father with his hands during a dispute.

He pleaded guilty to seven charges of violating a PPO, voluntarily causing hurt, harassment and theft — he had stolen Apple accessories at a mall in Chua Chu Kang.The court heard that Tham’s father — now aged 58 — got a PPO against his son in 2015, while Tham’s mother, now 60 years old, was issued one in 2019.However, court documents showed that he began violating the orders from December 2019 onwards. He first threw a coconut shell at his mother in their Woodlands flat and it hit her arm.

Tham used vulgarities when arguing with his father, then slapped and spit at him. He also threw a bicycle that was in the living room to the ground.This did not stop Tham, who argued with his father again on February 24 when the father walked into the frame of a video that Tham was recording. Separately, on four occasions in May, he stole Apple products such as chargers and AirTags from the Challenger store at Lot One mall. He had been released on court bail then.Before Tham was sentenced, his lawyers — Josephus Tan and Cory Wong from Invictus Law Corporation, who had been hired by the family — said that plans will be made to provide him with temporary accommodation.
