Having lived with his family in the house next door for the past eight years, Loh, who works as a commercial photographer, said the loud music and rowdy behavior of the guests at Kera’s parties began disrupting the peace in what was usually a quiet neighbourhood.
“She would hold private dinners which lasted from 11pm to 3am, and there would be sounds like breaking of glasses coming from her house. Chip Bee Gardens is usually very quiet,” he told Yahoo! Singapore.
Relations between the two neighbours were further strained after a heated exchange in November last year, after Loh’s wife went to ask Kera to lower down the volume as it was disturbing his then nine-month-old baby.
He claimed that Kera instead called the couple “lunatics” and said that Loh’s wife had trespassed onto her property. That was when they had an exchange of words.
From March 2011 to January this year, Loh said he has made a total of six police complaints. The latest being about a New Year’s Eve party held at Kera’s home which was reported by the media for disturbing the neighbours.
