Fatal 2024 Kitchener Road brawl: Jail, caning for man who assaulted member of dead man’s group
Satish Jason Prabahas, 25, assaulted a man, but not the one who died.
Satish Jason Prabahas, 25, has been sentenced to a year and ten months in jail and four strokes of the cane for assaulting Naviinjaay C Nathan, a member of the dead man's group, during a violent brawl in Kitchener Road, Singapore in September 2024. The victim, Dhinessh Vasie, 25, tragically died after being stabbed during the incident.
Satish was intoxicated and drove a private-hire vehicle with a group of people, including Kirrthik Roshan Prem Ananth and Sajid Saleem, to the scene near Kitchener Road around 4am. After an altercation broke out, Sajid used a knife to slash Naviinjaay and Dhinessh as they ran past, while Kirrthik hit Naviinjaay with a chair. Satish then kicked Naviinjaay and stamped on his face.
On October 28, Satish pleaded guilty to causing grievous hurt to Naviinjaay and was ordered to pay over $700 in compensation. The man charged with murdering Dhinessh, Muhammad Sajid Saleem, 24, is still awaiting trial.
