A 61-year-old driver is assisting the police with investigations after an 11-year-old boy who was crossing the road, was hit by a car in Sengkang, according to Shin Min Daily News.

The accident happened on 16 November at about 2.38pm, along Compassvale Drive.

A resident who lived nearby, Mr Xu, spoke to SMDN and said that he heard cries and later found out that a boy was lying on the road with blood on his face.

Passers-by went over to help him and an ambulance arrived at the scene after about 5 to 10 minutes, and he was then conveyed to the hospital.

Xu said that there was a red car that was parked nearby, and the driver of the car alighted from the vehicle to check on the situation and that there were no passengers in his car at the time.

It is believed that the boy was crossing the road to take the bus at the time near the accident site.

The Singapore Police Force confirmed that an 11-year-old boy was conveyed to KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital conscious, and that a 61-year-old man is assisting the police with their investigations.

A 58-year-old man in Singapore was sentenced to 23 years imprisonment on Thursday after pleading guilty to 2 counts of rape and one count of assault by penetration.

He had assaulted and raped his intellectually disabled eldest daughter for 3 years, starting in 2017 until his arrest in 2020.

The Straits Times reported that the man’s first assault started in 2017 when he made the victim (then 29) perform oral intercourse on him before raping her, and telling her not to tell her mother.

Then in 2019, he told the victim “let’s have fun” before raping her as she was coming out of the bathroom.

His wife was waiting for her daughter in the corridor on 8 July 2020 after realising that she wasn’t home yet by 11.45pm, and she saw her husband lifting the daughter’s shirt up at the staircase landing.

The man then apologised immediately and released the daughter, asking his wife for forgiveness.

The wife then went to her younger daughter and told her about what happened, and the latter then asked her sister about the incident, and her sister said she encountered their father at the corridor.

She added that he was holding his phone in one hand while lifting her shirt with the other.

The younger sister then took her father’s phone while he was sleeping and found evidence of his crimes, including video(s) of her sister undressing.

The victim then said that their father had entered the bathroom while she was still inside, where he told her to undress while he filmed her.

The victim’s mother and sister then filed a police report and the man was then arrested later that day, on 10 July 2020.

A video appeared on social media of a voice recording of a man who went berserk after his paid date refuses to provide him for “special services”.

He said: “I TELL U I GIVE YOU MONEY LEH TO SPEND TIME ON DINNER, I PAY MONEY LEH!

Here is what the victim said:

I went on a paid date and my male client was extremely aggressive. He asked me for sexual services but I told him that this platform does not offer that kind of services; just friendly dates, and he got aggressive.

This went on for quite sometime before the video was taken. He drove me to some ulu place and did not let me out of the car. I was ready to jump out of the moving car because I was that scared. I was shaking the entire time and was contacting my agent on text.

Worst of anti got victim-blamed by my agent. My agent called me after I finally got out of the car and asked me “what did you do to trigger him?”

Note that at this point of time I was already shaking with fear, crying, and still feeling unsafe and not an ounce of empathy was expressed by my agent.

Here are what netizens think:

• Also, why you do this kind of risky side gig? Better to not be in this kinda situation in the first place. Also, if you really must, meet at public place and then u leave yourself. Dont put yr fate into his hands and follow him wherever he might take u.

• Says a lot about a man who can not control his own anger. The agent also one kind. Name and shame the agent and the company.

• You got a very scary job dear…hope you can manage to get a better one. Stay safe 

• I’d spend the money on petrol rather than someone to talk to

• Not saying what the guy did is wrong, but she clearly put herself in this risk when taking up this job. If you dont want to deal with this or mentally cant handle ot, why even bother getting this free money. Some cases for rape, for example, girls go out at night to a dangerous place/in an unsafe country and expect themselves to be safe but in the end, they were taken advantage of. However, they were the one who put themselves at the risk of it in the first place, both parties are ar fault. You can’t expect every human being in the world to be sweet and caring people, reality is that there are real cunts out there.

Hello

About 3 weeks ago, on the Starhub website, I subscribed to Sports+ on a no-contract plan for $34.99 (as seen on my screenshot). After I subscribed to it, I received a confirmation email from Starhub that I had subscribed to the 12 month contract plan instead. I immediately emailed and called Starhub about this issue, and sent them the screenshot from the website which shows “$34.99 no contract plan”.

Apparently, according to the Starhub customer agents who I spoke with on call, the no-contract plan is supposed to be $44.99 and $34.99 is for the 12 months contract plan.

After 3 weeks of Starhub investigating, they told me today saying that I am on 12 months contract plan and not on no-contract plan and that I have to pay early termination charges if I wish to terminate. I did tell them why should I pay these charges when the website clearly showed “$34.99: no contract plan” and I have also emailed the screenshots.

They said they will escalate this to the Starhub management and get back to me. I don’t understand why is this taking so much time? If Starhub really forces me to pay, what should I do, what options can I consider? Will appreciate advice of our group members here. Thanks

The screenshots attached are of the purchase I made on the website (no contract plan) and the other screenshot is of the email confirmation I received from Starhub after the purchase (12 month contract)
