The senior prison officer found guilty of causing the death of an inmate by negligence had failed to adequately supervise his men when they were restraining the deceased, Dinesh Raman Chinnaiah, the court heard.
Lim Kwo Yin, 36, who holds the rank of deputy superintendent in the Singapore Prison Service, pleaded guilty on Friday to the charge and was fined $10,000.
The prosecution, recounting the incident of Sept 27, 2010, said Dinesh - who was serving a jail sentence for rioting and theft - had to be restrained after he had kicked a prison warden in his abdomen at about 10.45am in Changi Prison.
He was moved to a disciplinary housing unit and left alone on the ground in a "prone position" by officers under the supervision of Lim.
