A man pleaded guilty to a charge of causing grievous harm to his wife at the Melaka magistrate’s court yesterday (Jul 11), which led to several of her bones getting broken.

The accused, See Yong Fei, pleaded guilty following an earlier change of plea during the case’s mention, reported NST.

Beat wife for buying vegetables without permission

According to the English daily, the assault took place at a residence in Taman Desa Bertam on May 7, 2024.


Based on the facts of the case, See’s wife had left the house to buy vegetables at the market without getting his consent. It was also reported that See disapproved of her hanging out with others.

After discovering that she had left the house behind his back, See unleashed his fury on his wife by punching her arms and kicking her back, causing several of her bones to be fractured.

See then confined his wife to the house but she managed to seek help from a friend and eventually escaped while he was at work.


See’s wife was taken to the police station by the friend to lodge a report before going to the Melaka Hospital for treatment.

Jailed 1 day & fined RM6,000

See was charged under Section 325 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum prison term of seven years and a fine upon conviction.

Deputy public prosecutor Syaza Nur Sharif urged the court to impose an appropriate sentence, which took into account the extent of injuries sustained by See’s wife.

See’s lawyer Kelvinder Singh Sidhu pleaded for the minimum jail term and fine, stating See currently supports five young children and earns RM3,000 monthly as a contractor.

He added that this was See’s first offence and that he also had to care for his ailing father, noting that his wife no longer lives with him following the assault.

Magistrate Sharda Sheinha Mohd Suleiman sentenced See to a day in jail and a RM6,000 fine.

He got away too lightly. Should have his own bones broken.
