乌节豪杰大厦(Orchard Tower)命案中被逮捕的七人面控,其中有三人的谋杀控状被撤销,逃过死刑;另外的四人仍然面对着共谋谋杀控状。

三名逃过死刑的嫌犯为22岁的Tan Hong Sheng、26岁的Chan Jia Xing和25岁的Loo Boon Chong。

他们目前的控状被改为在工工程所持有攻击性武器,以及同持有攻击性武器的人合谋这两项。

三人都接到法官下达不可和其他被告、同谋或检方证人联系的谕令。

Tan Hong Sheng和Chan Jia Xing各别以2万5000元获得保释,而Loo Boon Chong则以1万5000元获得保释。

其余的四名被告中,Tan Sen Yang遭控方申请扣押,因为控方相信他涉及其他方面的罪行;Joel Tan 和Ang Dayuan则必须接受心理评估;女被告Natalie Siow则被扣押在樟宜女子监狱长达三周,以便进行心理评估。

若共谋谋杀罪名成立,被告可能面对死刑,而在公共场所持有攻击性武器者,则将可能面对不超过三年的监刑,和不少于六下的鞭刑。

案件将在8月1日过堂。

有关命案于7月2日清晨6时许发生,死者为31岁的印裔男子Satheesh Noel Gobidass。

法庭文件指出,被告们都是非法集会的成员,有共同意图伤害死者。

死者当时在二楼夜店疑似和被告们起冲突,遭他们围攻,颈部中刀后逃跑,却最终重伤倒在商场门口,随后被送往陈笃生医院急救,却因伤势太重而回天乏术。
