Dani Zulastri Mohamad Salim, 22, was charged on 2 April with voluntarily causing grievous hurt likely to cause death.
He had used a Chivas glass bottle to hit the victim, 30-year-old Justin Chua Yong Jie, on the back of his head on 20 March at about 10.45pm.
He was allegedly struck on the head while walking to a convenience store following a meal with his friends, along Merchant Road.
He was on his way to buy a drink at a 7-eleven outlet nearby alone and after the attack, he managed to return to the restaurant to ask his friends for help.
They were shocked to see him covered in blood and called the ambulance for him.
Chua reportedly had no idea who attacked him and he required at least 20 stitches on his head, as a video surfaced online showing him covered in blood and being attended to by paramedics. (The video has since been taken down).
He had suffered cuts on his head that were about 10cm long.
Three other men were charged earlier this week with common intention of causing grievous hurt to Mr Chua, they are namely:
- Taitus Wong Wei Zhi, 20
- Noor Shah Ryzqa Azman, 20
- Mohamad Amirul Shafi Abdullah, 22
Dani has since been remanded and the quartet will return to court again at a later date.
