</noscript>Ong Kah Chua was at the Subordinate Courts early Friday to have his case heard, but did not enter any plea when the judge asked if he wanted to plead guilty. Instead, he requested for a medical examination citing intestinal pain. If the former cab driver is found guilty, he could be facing life in prison. His case will be mentioned in court on February 6.

Meanwhile, the family of Mr Seng said he is out of intensive care and is progressing well. In a statement released on Friday, Mr Seng’s family said the MP is alert and is able to feed himself slowly. He has also started therapy. As part of his hand therapy, he is practising his handwriting and has begun signing his self—made Lunar New Year greeting cards for the doctors and nurses who have been taking care of him, as well as his friends. His family said he is expected to continue treatment and rehabilitation therapy in hospital beyond the Lunar New Year.

My question is, will he be tortured for his deed? I wish they can spare this poor old man who once helped to build Singapore alongside with LKY while SHiT was still studying in comfort till late 1980s.
