SINGAPORE - A man among the seven people linked to the Orchard Towers murder in July last year pleaded guilty on Monday (Dec 14) to obstructing justice by disposing of a bloodstained T-shirt worn by another man involved in the incident.
Loo Boon Chong, 27, was initially charged with the murder of Mr Satheesh Noel Gobidass, 31. His charge was later reduced to that of consorting with Tan Sen Yang, 28, who had the karambit knife - a curved blade resembling a claw - on his person at the time of the incident, as well as another charge of preventing justice.
The consorting charge will be taken into consideration for his sentencing.
