A man who caught his wife naked with another man in the latter's car climbed onto the vehicle's bonnet in a desperate bid to stop them from leaving.
But he fell and sustained injuries, after the man stepped on the accelerator to drive off.
The purported lover, Chia Hiok Seah, was taken to court on Tuesday (July 1) for the offences of causing hurt through a rash act and appearing nude in a public place, reported Shin Min Daily News.
According to court documents seen by AsiaOne, the incident occurred at about 2.13am on June 29, 2024, at the multi-storey car park Block 278 Compassvale Bow.
Chia, 50, is accused of causing hurt to the victim by driving while the latter was on the front bonnet, causing him to fall to the ground.
This resulted in the victim suffering injuries including a facial laceration, puncture wound on his face, abrasions over his hand and knee and a scratch on his chest, the documents stated.
Chia was also handed a second charge of appearing nude in the car park while being in the vehicle.
He pleaded guilty to appearing nude in public, and not guilty to the first charge of causing hurt through a rash act, reported Shin Min.
Giving his testimony in court on Tuesday, the victim said he had reported the case, and that the person who injured him is his wife's lover, whom he identified as "Eugene Chia".
When the prosecution asked if he knew the accused, the victim was quoted by Shin Min as saying: "He (Chia) often disturbs my wife. They are friends, and he often looks for my wife to chat."
The victim told the court that he had felt worried as he was unable to contact his wife on the night of the incident and decided to search for her.
Later, he spotted Chia's car in the car park and grew suspicious. He explained he remembered the car's licence plate number, and that the accused had once driven his wife home.
He reportedly said: "I didn't know then if they were inside the car, so I stood at the side and started filming. When I got closer, I discovered they were naked."
The victim added that he had tried unsuccessfully to open the car door and asked the pair to alight, but they didn't. He then saw Chia attempting to drive off and climbed onto the bonnet to stop them.
He also reportedly testified that he was in severe pain after falling, and that his injuries were mainly on the left side of his body, including his face, shoulders and hands, which were bloodied.
According to the Chinese evening daily, the victim underwent surgery about four hours after the incident and was given 14 days of medical leave.
The victim told the court that he would occasionally feel discomfort while walking and he still has a scar on his face from the incident. He added that he is also unable to engage in strenuous exercises now.
If they were across the water in Malaysia, the punishment would be worse.

Well, that’s the problem right there. If you’re really interested in fighting for your wife, you wouldn’t climb onto the vehicle’s bonnet. (I don’t know what a “bonnet” is, but it sounds gay.)
You’d climb onto the vehicle’s hood instead.
🙂
Pics or it didn’t happen.
Chia Hiok Seah — a bad seed, no doubt about it.
“...the offence of causing hurt through a rash act” — Hubby is the one with the road rash.
Um....be careful what you ask for. As Jerry Seinfeld once said there is good naked and bad naked.
Bonnet is British for the hood of the car.

I believe the “bonnet” is a description for the hood of a car in England.
as in, “don’t mess with me, I was raised in the bonnet’
I guess the wife was Chia’s Pet.
Do they still use film in Asia?
>> vehicle’s bonnet
Britishism. And the trunk is The Boot. Hood for the cloth convertible top. Petrol tank for gas tank.
We had a British Racing Green MGB. The back end always broke loose, which made cornering quick and scary.
So...
If I read this correctly, the “lover”m had a rash...
Nothing worse than being caught, naked, with a guy’s wife when you have a rash...

Yeah…. I just don’t understand why the British don’t speak English correctly. 😊😊

Yes, indeed. Thanks to all who replied. I was trying to poke a little fun at the Brits (hence the 🙂).
But I will not apologize! Instead, I will quote Homer Simpson: “Why can’t the English speak English like the rest of us?”
So, the penalties in Singapore are worse for spitting chewing gum on a sidewalk than for this incident?
That's what a bonnet is.
“...appearing nude in the car park while being in the vehicle.”
Dude. We’ve ALL been there at some point. For me, it’s usually at the Car Wash. But then, I’m a Multi-Tasker! ;)
And drive on the correct side of the road!
Hey, it takes all the work out of getting clean. But you have to pay extra for the hot wax.
I’ll leave the pics to you. Is Singapore becoming the Florida of Asia?
Bonnet = Hood, as in, Hood of a car. Brit word. I assume this is Hong Kong. Chinglish is spoken in Hong Kong.
