Two Indians will be charged in a Singapore court Monday with rioting, after an alleged attack on three compatriot housemates in a dispute over their utilities bill, a media reported said Sunday.
The Indian nationals, aged 29 and 36, who are unnamed in the report, were arrested for being part of a group of assailants who assaulted three other Indian men at a housing estate in Singapore's Jurong West area Thursday, Channel NewsAsia reported Sunday.
Police said that the victim had a dispute with the 29-year-old accused over the cost of their utilities bill.
Police had received a complaint from one of the victims, who was assaulted by the accused and eight other people.
