  "account": "A former Singaporean army captain received a 17-month prison sentence for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old student, with his ex-partner acting as the facilitator. The victim met the captain through a navy cook who introduced them, leading to multiple sexual encounters in a car park and at a disabled toilet. The captain also filmed the acts and kept the recordings as his \"personal collection.\" His co-accused, a navy cook, received a 12-month sentence for similar charges. The judge emphasized the importance of protecting minors from exploitation, regardless of the victim's role in initiating the encounters.",
  "summary": "Chaw Chia Jun had been introduced to the victim by his former partner, a navy cook, and the trio engaged in sex acts at a car park.",
