The 24-year-old man was sentenced to three months’ jail after pleading guilty to one charge of criminal intimidation and one charge of voluntarily causing hurt. He also pleaded guilty to one charge under the Computer Misuse Act for disclosing his Singpass details over a separate incident.The name of the man and his wife cannot be published to protect the identity of the couple’s children.

When his wife said that she wanted to take the baby to her mother-in-law’s house, the man asked her to “try doing that”, said APP Chye. The man’s mother called the police soon after, reporting that her son had abused his wife and that the man had refused to give their child to the mother. Sam had told the man that he wanted to register the company under the man’s name, would run the business with his friends and shut down the company within a month.

Mr Jeyabal added that his client had been “enraged” and “provoked” by his wife and placed the blunt end of the knife at her throat in the “heat of the moment”.
