TWO years ago, Koh Kim Swee, now 23, hit his mother on the head with a hammer and was jailed 15 months.
The unrepentant son hurt her again two months ago. He slashed his 49-year-old mother's forehead with a 19cm-long knife along the common corridor outside their flat at Jurong East Street 21 on March 18 - over a trivial matter.
On Thursday, he was jailed 30 months and ordered to be caned six strokes after he admitted to the charge earlier this week.
