Man gets jail for taking 179 upskirt videos over three years, molesting woman at MRT station

A 25-year-old Singaporean man, Lim Yi Fei, has been sentenced to nine months and 31 weeks in jail for a series of offences that include taking 179 upskirt videos over a period of three years and molesting a woman at a MRT station. The court heard that Lim approached women and recorded their buttocks while behind them, often travelling from home to work and vice versa.

In September 2019, he molested a woman at the Serangoon MRT station, and in 2024 and 2025, he recorded upskirt videos of other women at various MRT stations. Lim pleaded guilty to five charges, including outrage of modesty and theft in dwelling. The court also considered 11 additional charges.
