A deliveryman who slashed a fellow worker with a chopper was jailed for 18 months on Tuesday.
Chinese national Chen Ningke, 38, admitted to grievously hurting lighting technician Du Kang, 27, who is also from China, causing him to suffer multiple injuries at SJ Lite at Ubi Link on Dec 12 last year. Both men shared a room at the company premises.
That evening, the victim was completing some work at the common work station when Chen came and borrowed his phone. He walked away, pretending to make a telephone call.
When the victim turned back to face the common work station, Chen whipped out a chopper and assaulted him from behind.
