S'porean man, 44, sexually abuses 4 daughters over 15 years, 1 victim's mother didn't believe her when she confided in her
He was also sentenced to 22 strokes of the cane.
An elderly Singaporean man, aged 44, was given a sentence of 16.5 years in prison and 22 strokes of the cane for sexually abusing his four daughters over a period of 15 years. The abuse took place between 2008 and 2023, involving two biological daughters and two stepdaughters. The man, who has eight biological children and stepchildren from three marriages, was not named due to a gag order protecting the victims' identities.
The first known incident occurred in 2008 when the man, then married to his second wife, molested his stepdaughter from his first marriage, then 12 years old. She confided in her mother, but she did not believe her, fearing police disbelief. The girl was too afraid to report the incident.
In 2020, during his marriage to his third wife, the man abducted his biological daughter from his first marriage, then 17. He placed an 10-month-old infant on her back while kneeling on top of her, sexually assaulting her. She was shocked and unsafe around him, but did not report the crime as her family would disown her.
In November 2021, while married to his third wife, the man molested his biological daughter from his second marriage, then 13, who was staying at his flat overnight. She did not report the assault initially, but later did so.
The man also assaulted his stepdaughter from his third marriage repeatedly between 2020 and 2023. In 2023, while playing a video game with her, the man exposed himself and instructed her to perform a sexual act. She complied due to her inability to understand the seriousness of his instructions. The girl recorded a video of the incident, which her friend showed to her, prompting a police report. The man was arrested the same day.
