On 7 March 2011 at about 1.00 am , a couple were on their way home when they were confronted by two unknown men at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10 who demanded their valuables. When denied, one of the suspects used a belt buckle to assault the victims and attempted to snatch the female victim’s handbag, which contained cash about $2000/-. However, the victim managed to hold on to her handbag, and the suspects eventually fled with only the male victim’s handphone.
Through extensive enquiries and investigative probes, officers from Ang Mo Kio Police Division established the identity of the suspects. On 7 March 2011 at about 1.00 pm , the first suspect was arrested at his place of residence in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10. Following his arrest, the second suspect was arrested within the next hour at another block in the same housing estate.
Both suspects will be charged in Court on 9 March 2011 for Robbery with Hurt which carries a maximum of 20 years' imprisonment and at least 12 strokes of the cane.
