Father charged with throwing baby on bed

A father who allegedly threw his baby boy from a height of 1.1m onto a bed, made his third appearance in court on Friday.

Francis Lim Kiat Hoe, 29, who was charged on Jan 7 with a rash act, also faces a second charge of threatening to throw the two-month-old baby down from a block of flats in Jurong, with intent to cause alarm and fear to his wife.

The alleged offences happened at around 9pm on Jan 5.

The case was adjourned to Feb 10 as the medical report on the baby is still not ready.
