A 58-year-old security supervisor at a condominium was sentenced to 12 months imprisonment on 11 October after molesting a 16-year-old girl at the condominium’s guardhouse.
He had touched the victim’s private parts for half an hour despite being told to stop several times, as well as offering her $100 to perform an explicit act, which she turned down.
The Singaporean man cannot be identified because of a court order protecting the identity of the victim.
What happened?
The man had engaged the girl and her stepfather to work as temporary security guards at the condominium in February earlier this year, with the girl having just finished her secondary school studies and waiting to enter ITE in July.
He was alone with the girl on 13 February and was having a conversation with the girl, where he asked her if she was a virgin, to which she said yes.
The man then showed the victim an explicit video on his phone while the girl’s stepfather was in the rest room at about 5pm, but the girl didn’t want to watch it.
He then insisted and she then gave in and watched it while sitting next to him, after which the man then started rubbing her thighs ah she attempted to push his hands away.
The man then slid his hands into the girl’s pants and molested her for 30 minutes despite the girl telling him to stop.
He only stopped after he noticed someone approaching the guardhouse, before offering the girl $100 to perform an explicit act on him.
The girl then refused her offer and gave an excuse to go to the toilet, the man then placed his finger on his lips, signalling to the girl not to tell her stepfather, but she ignored him.
He was eventually jailed 12 months for his crimes.
