A New Zealander has been imprisoned in Singapore after drunkenly assaulting a taxi driver who missed a turn while driving him home and accidentally dropped his credit card. Eugene Gerrard Buckley, 59, pleaded guilty on Friday to one count of voluntarily causing grievous hurt, The Straits Times reports. He was sentenced to 30 weeks behind bars. The sentence was backdated to November last year, when Buckley was remanded. According to the outlet, the 59-year-old visited two bars on February 26, 2020, including The Drunken Poet, a pub at Orchard Towers. He then took a taxi home, but became angered when the 60-year-old driver, Tan Heng Choon, missed a turn.
