Mr Nurhilmi suffered fractures to his torso and right arm and leg, and was haemorrhaging at his head, neck, cardiovascular system, liver and thyroid. He was pronounced dead at about 12.40pm.

However, he was not of unsound mind at the time, was aware of his actions, and understood their potential consequences, the prosecutor said. He said Ibishov was suffering a relapse at the time, and his mental state could have been exacerbated by his 18-hour flight to Singapore.The lawyer added that Ibishov was remorseful, and that his family had offered Mr Nurhilmi's family S$2,000 to show their goodwill, which the victim's family had accepted.
