Mohammed Ariffin Tajuddin, 42-years-old, pleaded guilty to one count of voluntarily causing hurt to a vulnerable person on 28 December and was sentenced to 3 weeks imprisonment.
One more charge for breaching a protection order taken against him by his father was considered for his sentencing.
He had attacked his 75-year-old father for using the toilet in their home.
Using toilet
Ariffin was upset that his father used the toilet in the master bedroom, he then used his right hand to slap him in the face numerous times; as well as using a towel to hit his face.
Ariffin’s sister then noticed bruises on her father’s face during a visit and confronted Ariffin, who admitted to assaulting his father – she then made a police report on the same day.
