His act caused an accident which led to a motorcyclist's death.

Eldaniz Ibishov’s act caused an accident that led to the death of a motorcyclist, who collided with a lorry that was forced to brake.

His lawyer Barry Douglas Delaney said Ibishov felt something was off as his passport was not stamped. The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority stopped manually stamping passports for short-term visitors in 2022 and issues electronic visit passes instead. Thinking he was being abducted, Ibishov unbuckled his seat belt and jumped out of the moving vehicle.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Joseph Gwee said the driver of the lorry behind immediately applied the emergency brake and turned onto lane three to avoid hitting Ibishov.This resulted in freelance delivery motorcyclist Muhammad Nurhilmi Atan, 27, colliding with the rear of the lorry. In mitigation, Mr Delaney said his client had offered restitution to the victim’s family of his own accord. He added that Ibishov’s schizophrenia had worsened during his time in Singapore, and he had suffered a relapse.
