SINGAPORE: A man who jumped out of a minibus along the East Coast Parkway (ECP), starting an accident which claimed the life of a motorcyclist, was charged on Friday (Nov 10) with causing grievous hurt by performing a rash act.
Eldaniz Ibishov, a 38-year-old Russian national, leapt out of the moving vehicle before the exit to Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway at about 11.04am on Wednesday, court documents showed.
This caused a nearby lorry to stop, resulting in motorcyclist Muhammad Nurhilmi Atan, 27, hitting the rear of the lorry. Nurhilmi, who suffered multiple injuries, was taken to hospital unconscious and died later that day.
Court documents did not state why Ibishov jumped out of the minibus.
He was ordered to be remanded at the Institute of Mental Health for medical examination, and his case will be mentioned in court again on Nov 24.
Those found guilty of causing grievous hurt by performing a rash act may be jailed up to four years, fined up to S$10,000, or both.
