ATTACK NOT RELIGIOUSLY MOTIVATED

The attacker, a 37-year-old man, will be charged in court on Monday with voluntarily causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapon. 

If found guilty, the man, who was not named by the police in a media briefing in the early hours of Sunday, faces a jail term of up to 15 years, as well as a fine or caning.

The police will seek a court order to remand the man at the Institute of Mental Health for psychiatric evaluation.

The police said there is currently no evidence to suggest that it was a religiously motivated attack.
