Man who was teacher aide charged over sexual offences committed against pupil in school
The man, who cannot be named due to a gag order, is accused of committing the offences in March 2025 and February 2026.
A 25-year-old former teacher aide has been charged with sexual offences committed against a male student, according to prosecutors in Singapore. The allegations stem from incidents that allegedly occurred between 2025 and 2026, involving a male pupil aged 11 at the time. The man is accused of directing the victim to perform an indecent act on him, touching the child's genitals over his clothing, and allegedly molesting the young boy.
The first incident allegedly took place on March 7, 2025, while the second occurred on February 13, 2026. The man faces charges of procuring an obscene or indecent act by a child and molestation, both under the Children and Young Persons Act (CYPA). If found guilty, he could face up to seven years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000 for the procuring charge, and up to five years in jail for the molestation charge.
The man's identity and the school's name have been withheld due to a gag order protecting the victim's identity.
