SINGAPORE – A man who had been found dead at a HDB block in Yishun in July 2016 had been previously attacked by his two alleged assailants, the court heard on Monday (Feb 17).

Despite these attacks, Mr Shawn Rodrigues, 26, continued to harass the family of his alleged assailants, Ryan Xavier Tay Seet Choong and Lawrence Lim Peck Beng, according to four statements made by both men to the police during investigations in 2016.

These statements were read out in court on Monday, during Tay and Lim’s trial.
