A twenty-nine-year-old local man was named as a suspect in the Magistrate's Court yesterday for the assault of his 29-year-old wife.

The defendant, Mohammad Yusof bin Haji Latif, allegedly strangled his wife when they were at the vicinity of Sungai Bunga Car Park at 7.30pm on April 8.

Magistrate Dewi Norlelawati binti Haji Abdul Hamid withheld taking the defendant's plea as Deputy Public Prosecutor Sharon Yeo awaits a medical report on the victim from Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha (RIPAS) Hospital.

Magistrate Dewi fixed the case for further mention on April 14 whilst releasing the defendant on bail of BND$3,000 or in one local surety.
