SINGAPORE - An odd-job worker punched a woman traffic warden twice on the forehead after she had booked his friend for illegal parking.
Abdullah Sani Moonshi, 53, was jailed for 15 weeks on Tuesday (Jan 30) for punching Ms Kalidevi Wing Desan, 25, a Certis Cisco enforcement officer, on May 17 last year.
Ms Kalidevi was patrolling a backlane of Jalan Pinang that day, when Abdullah Sani recognised her as the officer who had earlier issued a parking ticket to his friend for parking his motorcycle illegally.
He asked her to follow him to the spot where his friend's motorcycle was parked and punched her on the forehead while she was doing so. He then punched her again while she tried to avoid him, a district court heard.
When Ms Kalidevi called the police, Abdullah Sani verbally abused her and left.
Ms Kalidevi was treated for a bruise on her head and given three days' medical leave.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Zhuo Wenzhao asked fora sentence of at least four months' jail, while Abdullah Sani's lawyer Randhir Gupta urged the court not to impose more than about three months' jail.
District Judge Lorraine Ho leaned towards a tougher sentence as the victim was a woman officer and Abdullah Sani was much bigger and stronger than her.
He could have been jailed for up to seven years, fined, caned or received any combined punishment.
