Man who sued neighbour for battery, assault and harassment loses suit, must pay S$10,000 in costs
A Singaporean man lost a lawsuit against his neighbor for alleged assault and harassment after failing to provide evidence. The court ordered him to pay S$10,000 in legal costs after the neighbor successfully used CCTV footage and call logs to refute the claims.
