SINGAPORE : A man who physically assaulted a Sembawang Town Council officer, has tried to make peace by writing a letter of apology.
Teo Chiam Ng went to the Town Council office on Monday morning to submit his letter which explained his actions.
The 59-year old technician had hit the officer with a golf club on April 8 at a block in Yishun Ring Road.
The officer had been investigating complaints that rabbit cages were obstructing the common corridors.
The cages are believed to belong to Teo, who had been given several reminders since February to remove them. But Teo had insisted they did not belong to him.
Teo was arrested but released on a bail of S$2,000.
The police are still investigating the incident.
The assaulted officer was admitted to Tan Tock Seng Hospital for head injuries.
It is not clear how serious his injuries were, how long he was hospitalised or if he has been discharged.
Teo said, "Let me tell you, I was just playing only. I've already said so many times that if he was really that badly injured, he wouldn't have been able to wake up." - CNA/ms
