The authorities will be charging two men on Wednesday (May 11) over an incident at Red Swastika School in Bedok North, where the driver of a Bentley car was caught on video pushing against a security officer.
In a joint statement on Tuesday night, the Singapore Police Force and the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said that the 61-year-old driver and his 28-year-old son — who is the owner of the Bentley — will face charges for their suspected involvement in the incident, which happened on Jan 11.
Follow-up investigations by the police and LTA found that the vehicle’s number plate was purportedly altered, and the driver had driven the vehicle without insurance coverage.
The authorities said that the 61-year-old man will be charged with committing a rash act causing hurt and with driving a vehicle without insurance coverage.
The son will be charged with altering the car's licence plate number and permitting another person to use a vehicle without insurance coverage.
