An Indian IT executive was cleared of a charge of wrongfully restraining a Vietnamese woman in his rented flat in Singapore, according to media reports on Friday.

Twenty-four-year-old Rohit Kumar was also cleared of a charge of attempted suicide, said the reports, adding no reason was given by the prosecution for withdrawing the second charge.

He was alleged to have restrained Dinh Thanh Tuyen in his Bedok Reservoir Road apartment on September 18.

Kumar was given a discharge not amounting to an acquittal on Thursday while an inquiry into the death of Tuyen, who fell from his apartment on September 18, has been scheduled for next Thursday.
