A doctor from India who was on holiday in Singapore molested four women in the rooftop infinity pool at Marina Bay Sands last month.

Jagdeep Singh Arora, 46, was sentenced to two weeks' jail yesterday after pleading guilty to two counts of molestation. Two other counts of molestation were taken into consideration during sentencing.

Singh's wife was with him when he touched two of the victims, but court papers did not mention if she saw him committing the offences. It is not known if she was with him when he molested the other two victims.

The court heard that at about 9pm on June 28, a 25-year-old tourist from Lithuania was in the pool when she noticed Singh, who was with his wife.

He moved very close behind the bikini-clad woman and she felt something brushing against her buttock. She turned around and saw his hand touching her.

She elbowed Singh before telling her husband about the incident. Another woman then told her Singh had molested her as well. The two women alerted security officers to what had happened.

Meanwhile, Singh molested a third woman - a 20-year-old Korean in a bikini. He touched her stomach.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Mark Yeo told the court that the woman was so shocked by what Singh did that she did not know how to react. "The accused then retracted his hand and walked away," DPP Yeo said.

But he returned minutes later and molested the Korean woman again. He also molested her friend who was nearby.

The two women told security officers what Singh had done.

The police were called in and arrested him. He later admitted to molesting the four women.

For each count of molestation, he could have been jailed for up to two years and fined or caned.

"The penalty for outrage of modesty is imprisonment for a maximum period of 2 years, or a fine, or caning, or any combination of such punishments. " Source : Criminal Law

Man who molested maid 4 times within first 9 days of her employment jailed

Suhaile Md,Yahoo News Singapore Fri, 13 Jul 6:50 PM SGT






A sales manager who molested his maid four times within the first nine days of her employment was jailed 11 months on Friday (13 July).

Francis Lim Boon Liang, 49, had pleaded guilty in the State Courts to two charges of molesting the maid. Two other similar charges against him were taken into consideration.

Court documents state that the father of two children hired the maid on 24 November 2016. The maid cannot be named to protect her identity.

Lim first molested the maid sometime in the evening between 24 November and 30 November at his place. Lim was wearing only a pair of shorts when he exposed himself to her in the kitchen.

Lim then asked her to kiss his genitals. Although she said no, he persisted and guided her neck towards his exposed crotch. The maid felt she had no choice and kissed his genitals.

The maid was at Lim’s mother’s house when he molested her again on 3 December. He also guided her hands to come into contact with his genitals.

The maid ran away the following night to lodge a complaint at the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) services centre in Bendemeer Road. As the office was closed then, she slept at a bus stop nearby until the next morning when it opened. MOM then called the police.

Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Goh Yi Ling, who asked for 12 months’ jail, told the court that Lim had abused the trust of his maid, who was vulnerable and powerless against her employer.

Lim’s lawyer, Sunil Sudheesan, said that his client had pleaded guilty to his first offence, thus sparing the maid the trauma of a trial.

For Lim, 2016 was an “extremely difficult” time as his brother died in June and his father passed away that December, said the lawyer, who asked for eight months’ jail.

District Judge Marvin Bay said that Lim’s actions were “a brazen and cynical exploitation (of the maid)… for his own sexual gratification”.

Lim could have been jailed up to two years, or fined, or caned, or any combination of the three punishments.

It was just a bit of touching... not so much big deal about it.

If you board the train during the rush hour, whether intentionally or unintentionally, you will also touch many boobs.

The severity of the offence is different -- one did only a bit of touching, while the other one exposed his dick pushed and the victim down to force a blowjob.
