It was previously reported that 5 people were arrested at a hotel in Bugis on Monday, where weapons were seized and a woman was also found injured.
Following the incident, a 23-year-old Singaporean woman, Norliana Hazuliana; and an 18-year-old Indonesia, were charged with assault earlier today (29 March).
The 18-year-old was previously charged in court last year for allegedly committing assault in 2021, but he jumped bail and a warrant of arrest was issued against him.
He then allegedly took part in the attack in Bugis while being wanted by the police.
The 18-year-old cannot be named because he was 17 years old during his alleged earlier offences in 2021 under the Children and Young Persons Act.
The 18-year-old and Norliana, along with a 22-year-old Mohammad Ghufran Sinarfadhli, had allegedly used a serrated knife to attack a man on Monday at about 11.30 am, at the Rest Bugis Hotel in Jalan Kubor.
The former two’s cases have been adjourned to 5 April while Ghufran is set to be charged on Thursday (30 March).
The Singapore Police Force said that their officers were alerted to the incident on 27 March shortly before the afternoon.
A spokesperson for the Singapore Police Force said that their officers arrived at the scene and found blood stains in a hotel room, as well as a 19-year-old injured woman who was found with lacerations on her body.
She was then conveyed to the hospital conscious.
The spokesperson added that the woman was also arrested for voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous means with common intention, as well as suspected drug related offences.
The identities of the people involved in the incident were established by officers from the Central Police Division and the group of 5 were then arrested within 24 hours of a police report being lodged.
The 18-year-old Indonesian boy has also allegedly taken part in an unlawful assembly with 4 other people in an unrelated case, at Block 99C Lorong 2 Toa Payoh on 25 July 2021 at about 2 pm.
He is also being accused of kicking another man on the chest that day.
He is set to return to court on 5 April, along with Norliana Hazuliana.
