Shocking thing happened right here in Singapore
-
Something just happened to a friend of mine today, which I think some of us could learn a lesson from. It is a true account of events, and not a fabrication.
Was around 1am last nite when he was heading home from an event. Made a wrong turn out KJE into the LCK area. He's quite bad with directions so he drove further and further in his 3 wk old Mazda 3. Eventually he found himself in an industrial area where he chanced upon a grp of foreign workers squatting in the middle of the road. He decided to ask for directions, and wound down his window. One of the guys gave him directions out of the area, but before he knew it, this guy stuck his hand thru the window in a grasp and held him by the neck. Two other workers stood up, discussed something in a foreign lang (thai or myanmese, according to him) and entered the car from the front and back of the passenger side. He said they reeked of alcohol. They dragged him to the back seat where they started hammering him. One of them got into the driver's seat and started driving off. They hammered him with a rock that was at least 15cm across until his head was filled with blood. The driver lost control of the car and crashed it into a lamp post. At this point i think they panicked and decided to abandon car. They lit a rag and threw it into the car to let it burn. At this point my friend was abt to give up, he acted unconscious so that they would leave him in the car.The 3 men then ran off, leaving my friend to burn in the back of the car. After a while, he picked up enough strength to open the door, and run from the car until he saw a security guard at a post, where the police were called in. It was a good thing he wasn't choked by the flame.
Result: He is now in hospital, conscious, 5 fractured fingers, one was hanging by the skin, broken at the joint, a long gash across the top of his head, strangle marks on his neck, bruises on face, and huge bite marks on his shoulders (yes, they bit him). Car was burnt to frame, you might probably read this in the papers tmrw. Shocking that something like this could happen in Singapore.
Car had no autolocking feature as it doesn't come standard on Mazda cars. -
Omg... dis is shocking... I feel sad for yr fren. I pray he get better and live a better life after dis horrible scenario. As for those drunkards... I pray they hold responsible for what they did. Whether they surrender or get caught, I have no comments.

All cars have auto lock !
Well all i can say if you don't use brain that what you end up with.
1st, if you drive wrongly into quiet area ! Would you be asking 3 morons that squading in the middle of the road ? Who in the right mind will be squading in the middle of the road in the middle of the night ? Only nut and crazy assholes - if you think about it. That area have other building with security guard he should ask them instead.
Next if you buy a car and did not even learn how to auto lock it, then asking for trouble also. At least in that situation , autolock your doors, just wind down window a little. Any action from them, just drive off ....
Like you say shocking indeed, not by the beating, but by how dumb the driver is ! -
did you friend report to the police to have the construction workers captured and for questioning????
-
Ya lor, I wont even bother asking those idiots... Rather drive around amd find my way out... But sad for your friends...
But then, your friend should just jammed on the accelerator if he found something was wrong, rather than to give them a chance to enterthe car... -
Agreed!!!! Your friend should have drove off with that stranger's hand on his neck. Got power window even better. Just click, close the window and drive off. That stranger's hand would be in your friend's car now.Originally posted by coldcar:Ya lor, I wont even bother asking those idiots... Rather drive around amd find my way out...

Are you sure man? Months ago this buddhist statue in Thailand smashed by another religion's follower was beaten to death by pretty religious Thais. Come on there's black sheep in every flock.Originally posted by larrenV2.003:It is more like Thais no way its a burmese(a.k.a Myanmar ppl) cuz the burmese are strictly religious despite being poor...

i frequent that area during night with my friends .
theres alot of dogs, but usually at night i dont see those foreign workers hanging around. they usually go to slp i guess.
ur friend must be very unlucky to meet them on their partying night after their drinking session.
just don't bother asking foreign workers in future and try making your way out coz i believe there are enough road signs to get you out of there soon enough. -
yeah. give me his car. i can have 2 mazda 3s then.
dun tell me he brake, switch on hazard lights, change to parking gear, engage parking brake, wind down window..... ask question. -
