Former navy chef & army captain ex-boyfriend sexually abused boy, then 15, at Punggol carpark

In April 2024, a 15-year-old secondary school student from Singapore sought online companionship and was directed to a forum for mature Singaporean gay men. The student initiated contact with 26-year-old former navy chef Owen Toh Wei Song, whose profile linked to his Telegram account. Over time, they discussed sexual interests, with Toh revealing his acquaintance with Toh's ex-boyfriend, Chaw Chia Jun (also known as Jim), an army captain and 41-year-old man.

In June 2024, Toh, Chaw, and the victim met at a Punggol carpark. Chaw drove the victim to a multi-storey carpark, caressing the victim's thighs during the journey. Upon arrival, they parked and instructed the victim to disrobe in an open area outside the car. Toh subsequently performed a sexual act on the victim, while Chaw filmed it.

The victim later reported the incident to the police, leading to arrests of both Toh and Chaw. Toh pleaded guilty to sexual penetration of a minor and received a 12-month jail sentence, while Chaw's guilty plea is expected soon. The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) maintains strict discipline and integrity standards, with personnel committing offences facing legal consequences.
