SINGAPORE: One of the two detainees who tried to escape from the Subordinate Courts in June is expected to plead guilty on September 16.
It is not known which charges 28-year-old Salmah Abu Samah will plead guilty to.
The other detainee, 32-year-old Jamaluddin Salam, is due to return to court for a pre-trial conference on September 1.
On June 11, Jamaluddin Salam and Salman Abu Samah were brought to the Subordinate Courts to face charges of robbery with hurt.
Under the pretext of asking for water, the two men made an escape from the lock-up after assaulting two policemen.
They then took a lift to the fourth floor and forced their way through a locked door to the ground floor public area.
One of them was caught at the entrance of the Subordinate Courts building and the other a short distance away. - CNA/vm
