In court on Dec 2, 2020, Ng Aik Leong, also known as Huang Yiliang (pictured), burst into a loud reading of a transcript containing several vulgarities that he had allegedly used on his worker even though he was not asked to do so.
Former actor Ng Aik Leong, better known as Huang Yiliang, said he had an “agreement” allowing him to hit his worker
Even so, he said his blows did not land on the worker
Ng turned agitated at times and was warned by the judge about his behaviour in court
SINGAPORE — In defending himself against a charge of attacking his employee with a dangerous weapon, former Channel 8 actor Ng Aik Leong, better known as Huang Yiliang, said that the employee had intentionally provoked Ng to hit him in order to end his work contract.This claim came after Ng previously told the court that the pair had an "agreement" that he could hit the Bangladeshi to help the worker improve at work, akin to how a father would cane his child.Ng allegedly hit Mr Jahidul on the head and scratched his abdomen twice with a metal scraper on Dec 11, 2018. He had hired the worker in October that year under a firm called HYL. Mr Jahidul, 35, had earlier disputed that Ng was play-acting when the assault happened.Ng, 59, who was not represented by a lawyer, testified on Wednesday (Dec 2) through a Chinese interpreter: “Right from the beginning, he had agreed and he was the one who asked me to hit him.”

However, he was faking it as if he were a child… He was waiting for this moment so that he can make use of police resources to stop his contract and leave me.”Ng mentioned that the worker had done something to anger him on various occasions such as when Mr Jahidul had fetched him a pair of child-sized pants, and said that these were part of the victim’s ploy to provoke him into becoming angry. The former actor suggested that he was himself the victim, describing the case as a situation of a person holding a weapon with “no intention” and an unarmed person with “intention”.Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Chong Kee En put it to Ng that his testimony was “ridiculous”. Ng replied: “From the first day, my stand has not changed. I don’t know why you keep saying that I am ridiculous.”DPP Chong charged that Ng had hit his worker out of anger and not because of any agreement they had.

Ng disagreed.He repeated his claims that he was using “fake punches” during that incident — a move he learnt in his years acting in movies — and that none of the thrusts he made with the scraper landed on Mr Jahidul, so he had no clue how the man got injured.“Even if I use a machine gun, he won’t be injured because I had no intention of doing so.” ‘I’M VERY AGITATED, SORRY’Throughout the proceedings, Ng kept making remarks about the way DPP Chong was asking questions, that he was asking for too many details and was “too particular with the terms”.
