Ya. So
sad. The TD got one son in NS and a daughter in school. Wife works
as a clinic assistant.
Actually, the whole
thing was fated and could have been avoided. This PRC wanted to rob
a taxi driver. He got no money and his mother in China was
suffering from cancer. Saw many taxis at Sun Plaza taxi stand, but
got no guts to hail one. Went to main road, many taxis passed by,
but he did not flag. He wanted to abandon his plan and go
home.
Then,
this TD came along. PRC did not flag. The TD stopped some
distance ahead, then reversed his taxi, wind down the window and
asked the PRC where he wanted to go.
PRC
there and then decided to carry out his act. He asked the TD to
take him to Jalan Selimang. Such a deserted place, why would a
foreign worker want to go there?
At Jalan
Selimang, PRC took out a knife and put it against the TD's chest
and asked the TD to give him his money. The TD said ok and took out
the money. The PRC momentarily let go off his grip on the TD. This
was when the TD fought back and in the process, was stabbed. The
stabs were fatal as the TD lost a lot of blood.
The PRC
heard noises from the nearby mosque. He then quickly disposed of
the body in the woods. The body was not discovered until six days
later. By then, it was so badly decomposed that the forensic
pathologist could not ascertain the cause of
death.
The PRC
then drove the cab to a nearby carpark and left it there. He was
caught whilst trying to book a flight home in People's Park. When
Police brought him to Jln Selimang to find the body, he shivered
and was so scared he did not want to follow the police into the
woods.
If the
TD did not put up a fight, perhaps he might live. SMRT
driver.
Why I say he is brutal....
Becos you miss part of the murdering....
After killing the TD, he is not remorseful, he still can use the
TD hp to call his family and demand ransom....
And he jolly well know that the TD is already dead.....
If he never "follow up" with this act, he might already flee
this small island and this murder case will forever remain
unsolve....
