THE woman involved in the Clementi wet market catfight with
another was spared a jail sentence and placed on 36 months'
probation on Monday for criminal intimidation.
Teo Siang Liang, 49, a fishmonger who was suffering from acute
stress reaction and chronic depression, had earlier admitted to
threatening rival stallholder Koh Chiam Kee, 52, with a chopper at
about noon at Clementi Avenue 3.
The court heard that before the Feb 23 incident, the two seafood
stallholders had had disputes.
That day, Teo went to the stall and spoke to her husband, Mr Tan
You Wha, 56, before taking out a camera to take a few shots of the
victim's stall. The couple and the victim then got into an argument
and only stopped when the police came.
About an hour later, Teo confronted the victim and said that she
wished to beat her up. While the victim was at her stall, Teo came
and threatened her with the chopper.
After Mar Tan had disarmed his wife, the two women had a brief
scuffle, during which To pulled the victim's hair, and caused her
to trip and fall onto the ground.
